Server Name
Server name is useful if you have many OctaGate Switch™ servers, and need to tell them apart.
Web Admin port
This is the port that OGWA should listen to. For remote administration to work, all firewalls must let this port through.
Login name
The name to use when logging into OGWA
Password
The password to use when logging into OGWA
Password verify
A verification of the password to use when logging into OGWA
Max threads to pool
OctaGate Switch™ will pool threads so connections can be established faster than if a new thread had to be created for every connection. When a new user connects, OctaGate Switch™ will simply pick a thread from the pool. Pooling threads consumes some system memory.
Public status page
If you want the status page of OctaGate Switch™ to be public, check this checkbox.
No remote admin
If you want to disable remote admin, this checkbox should be checked.
Logging Options
Determines what level of logging OctaGate Switch will perform
W3C
W3C logs are the default web log format and can be read by all modern log analyzers. This is like a regular webserver log. Logs are created in the W3C subdirectory.
Event
Logs events in OctaGate Switch, these items are placed in a separate log because they are not W3C log entries. These logs are placed in the OG subdirectory.
Trace
Logs trace items in OctaGate Switch. Trace items are less important than events and this option should only be used for debugging purposes on large servers, due to the amount of data it generates.
These items are placed in a separate log because they are not W3C log entries. These logs are placed in the OG subdirectory.
Log Directory
Determines the directory where you want your log files to be stored. If you leave it empty, it will use the the default directory; "C:\Program Files\OctaGate\Log\*"
Allow Keep-Alive
Keep-Alive is a powerful http method that lets the server/browser re-use connections for communication. Turning off keep-alive should only be done if you really know what you're doing, as it will slow down the process somewhat.
Remove OG Headers
OctaGate Switch adds a number of headers to both HTTP requests and HTTP responses. In extremely rare situations (non standard servers) these headers can cause problems, but you should leave them on unless these headers can be shown to cause problems.
