Table 1. Oracle DataServer broker Controlling NameServer properties
Property Description
Register with NameServer A check box that indicates whether to register the DataServer with a controlling NameServer.
Controlling NameServer Identifies the NameServer that the DataServer uses to find a broker that supports the correct application services. (If you did not select to register the DataServer with a NameServer, the field is dimmed and unavailable.)
Registration mode How the broker specifies its hostname when registering with its controlling NameServer. This hostname information is passed onto a client application when it attempts to connect to a Data Service that the broker supports. The choices are:
  • Register IP — (Default) This setting is the most efficient mechanism, and can be used in most cases. It registers with the IP address of the machine where the broker is located.
  • Register-LocalHost — The broker registers with the hostname of the machine that it runs on. Use this setting when the broker runs on a machine with a single hostname and more than one IP address.
  • Register-HostName — The broker registers with the values specified in the hostName property. Use this setting when your clients need a fully qualified host name to connect to a broker in a different DNS domain.
Registration host name Identifies the hostname value to be used if the Registration mode property is set to Register-HostName.
