Fill in the following fields:
Send/Receive Cycle: Specify the maximum amount of time you want the gateway to spend
sending and receiving messages during one cycle. The default (120 seconds) causes the
gateway to send messages for a maximum of 60 seconds and to receive messages for 60
seconds. The cycle is then repeated.
If the time limit is reached and a message is being processed, the gateway will finish
processing the message.
Minimum Run: This field does not apply to the Notes Gateway.
Idle Sleep Duration: Specify the number of seconds the gateway is to remain idle if it has no
commands or messages to process. The default value is 30 seconds.
The gateway constantly polls its directory for messages to process. The purpose of idle time
is to save CPU cycles and to keep network traffic manageable.
Snap Shot Interval: The Notes Gateway server console shows the gateway statistics for the
last x minutes (an interval you specify). The default interval is 10 seconds. Gateway activity
is updated every minute.
