Create NMAP Agent
The NMAP Agent is responsible for
managing the message store (where user mailboxes are located) and
the message queue (where incoming and outgoing messages are
processed). In addition, the NMAP Agent provides IP access to the
message store and message queues for all other NIMS agents on port
689.
NMAP stands for Network Messaging
Application Protocol. It is the messaging protocol used to move
messages through your NIMS system, placing the NMAP Agent at the
heart of your NIMS system.
Fill in the NMAP Agent fields > click
Apply to create the NMAP Agent object. Click the new NMAP Agent
object to define additional object properties.
Path Specify the
volume and, optionally, the directory where the NMAP Agent will
create the message store and message queues.
Context Specify the
NDS context that will be serviced by the NMAP Agent. Messaging
services will automatically be provided to every user in the
specified context. Mailboxes will be created in the local message
store directory when users begin sending and receiving messages.
When creating the NMAP Agent
object, you can select only one user context. However, when
configuring the NMAP Agent, you can add multiple user contexts.
