Configuring Communication Connections

Addresses Tab

The addresses tab displays proposed values for the relevant local and remote address information. If necessary, you can set the TSAP addresses individually.

Figure 4-12 Layout of the “Addresses” Tab of the Properties Dialog with Default TSAPs for ISO-on-TCP Connections

TSAP Format

ISO-on-TCP connections have a TSAP length of 1 to 16 bytes. When you are entering values, the current length is displayed automatically (visible display: 16 ASCII characters). Local and remote TSAPs can be input as hexadecimal values or as ASCII strings. If you make your entries in ASCII, the characters you enter are also displayed in hexadecimal format. If you make your entries in hexadecimal, printable characters are displayed in ASCII (8 hexadecimal values are visible). If you enter nonprintable characters, the ASCII display is gray (no further ASCII entries possible) and the nonprintable characters are displayed as periods.

Local and Remote TSAPs

Remote and local TSAPs can be identical since the connection is uniquely identified by the different MAC addresses. If you require more than one connection between two stations, the TSAPs must also be different.
