The parameters can be divided into client and server parameters. Some appear both as reverse invoke clients and reverse invoke servers for the SAProuter.

Parameter	Meaning	Value Range	Default
client	Determines use as a client	Any value
client_service	Determines the registration port (see Reverse Invoke)	Port number
ACE	Access control entry	Maximum 32 entries per form P/D <address>/<prefix>
max_servers	Maximum number of servers allowed to register	Integer	`1`
conn_pool_size	Number of connections held in the pool	Integer	`3`
client_hostname	Local address for registration port if a specific interface is required	Port number
listen_protocol	Protocol of the registration ports	IPv4, IPv6, unspec	`Unspec`
exclusive	Specifies whether conventional non-RI connections can be set up	Logical value [yes, no]	`yes`
connect_timeout	Timeout for the connection setup.	Milliseconds	`2000`

Table 2: Server Parameters

server	Determines use as a client	Any value
client_hostname	Host name/client address (registration port)	Host name or IP address
client_service	Determines the registration port (see Reverse Invoke)	Port number
reg_hostname	Host name to be registered; if the parameter is not set, all local interfaces are registered (pseudo port)	Host name or IP address
reg_service	Service name to be registered (pseudo port)	Port number	`3299`
connect_timeout	Timeout for connection to client. The value -1 deactivates the timeout.	Milliseconds	`-1`
retry_timeout	Timeout between two attempts to set up the connection to a client	Seconds	`5`
conn_on_demand	Specifies whether connections are set up only when they are needed	Logical value [yes,no]	`yes`
reg_protocol	Protocol of the pseudo port	IPv4, IPv6, unspec	`Unspec`
