You can create a DDM file that uses TCP/IP as the communication
protocol for connecting with the remote server.
Each DDM file that uses TCP/IP contains the following information.
DDM file value and description of values
- DDM file name
- The name of the DDM file on the source server that is used to identify
a specific remote file.
- Remote file name
- The actual file name of the remote file; that is, the name by which it
is known on the target server.
- Remote location name
- The name of the remote location where the remote file exists. This remote
location name provides the data link to the target server (remote location)
by using TCP/IP, over which a DDM conversation is established
when this DDM file is accessed.
- Type
- The type of connection to be used to communicate with the remote location
when the DDM conversation is established with the remote server. To create
a DDM file that uses TCP/IP, specify *IP.
