12 +
11 11  An arbitrary name for the server that will be shown in the connection overview page.

15 -== Host ==
17 +=== Description ===
16 16  
19 +You can enter an optional description for the {{fserver number="plural"/}}.
20 +
21 +=== Host ===
22 +
17 17  The IP address the {{mserver/}} uses to establish a connection to {{fserver/}}. {{formcycle/}} must be installed on the {{fserver/}}.
18 18  
19 -Examples: {{code}}localhost{{/code}}, {{code}}127.0.0.1{{/code}}
25 +Examples: {{code language="none"}}localhost{{/code}}, {{code language="none"}}127.0.0.1{{/code}}
20 20  
21 -== Port ==
27 +=== Port ===
22 22  
23 23  The network port the {{fserver/}} listens on for incoming connection from the {{mserver/}}.
24 24  
25 -Default: {{code}}4753{{/code}}
31 +Default: {{code language="none"}}4753{{/code}}
26 26  
27 -== Connect automatically ==
33 +=== Key ===
28 28  
29 -When this option is activated, the {{mserver/}} will attempt to establish a connection to the {{fserver/}} automatically when the {{mserver/}} is first started as well as when changing and saving the connection settings.
35 +The key of an {{fserver/}} is used to check if the {{mserver/}} is authorized to establish a connection to this {{fserver/}}. After installing the system for the first time, no such key has been set yet. Once a connection could be established successfully, this key will be transmitted to the {{fserver/}} and saved there locally. This process is called impregnation. When another {{mserver/}} attempts to establish a connection to this {{fserver/}}, it will require the key that has been set in this option.
30 30  
31 -== Connection attempts ==
37 +This field will be pre-filled with an automatically generated key when creating a new connection.
32 32  
33 -The number of times the {{mserver/}} should attempt to establish a connection to the {{fserver/}} until giving up. When this limit has been reached, no more connection attempts are made the connection keeps the status //error//.

43 +=== Connect automatically ===
38 38  
39 -The interval in seconds between two successive connection attempts from the {{mserver/}} to the {{fserver/}}.
45 +When this option is activated, the {{mserver/}} will attempt to establish a connection to the {{fserver/}} automatically when the {{mserver/}} is first started as well as when changing and saving the connection settings.
40 40  
41 -The total time in seconds the {{mserver/}} attempts to establish a connection is therefore the product of the number of //connection attemps// and the //connection interval//.
47 +=== Connection attempts ===
42 42  
43 -Default: {{code}}10{{/code}} (every ten seconds)
49 +The number of times the {{mserver/}} should attempt to establish a connection to the {{fserver/}} until giving up. When this limit has been reached, no more connection attempts are made the connection keeps the status //error//.

59 +Default: {{code language="none"}}10{{/code}} (every ten seconds)
54 54  
61 +=== SSL encryption ===

55 55  By using SSL (//Secure Sockets Layer//) encryption you can encrypt the connection to the {{fserver/}}. When this option is activated, the following two required settings appear:
