SOCKPMAX (JANUS DEFINE parameter)
<section begin="desc" />SOCKPMAX xx — Concurrent client connection limit<section end="desc" />
SOCKPMAX is a parameter on JANUS DEFINE, which defines and sets characteristics of a Janus port.
This parameter specifies the maximum number of sockets a user may have connected at any time using the particular Janus Sockets client port. The default, which is also the minimum value, is one, and the maximum value is 32767.
Note the distinction between this parameter on the JANUS DEFINE command and the SOCKMAX Model 204 system parameter:
- The SOCKPMAX port parameter specifies the number of connected sockets a user may have at any time for the particular CLSOCK or DEBUGGERCLIENT port. A terminated connection is not included in this total, even if the application has not issued the $SOCK_CLOSE function for it.
- The SOCKMAX system parameter specifies the number of in-use sockets a user may have at any time. One of these is reserved for the server socket number 1, whether the user is a server socket program or not, so there are
SOCKMAX - 1sockets available to each user to make connections on CLSOCK or DEBUGGERCLIENT ports. A terminated connection is included in this total if the application has not issued the $Sock_Close function for it.
Valid only for CLSOCK and DEBUGGERCLIENT ports.
