Protocols Tab

Configure the network protocols and ports for communication with the PC-Duo Host in the Protocols tab.  The  UDP/IP and TCP/IP check boxes enable/disable the network protocols that can be used for peer-to-peer or Gateway-managed connections to the Host.  To the right of each check box is a Port list.  Use the Port list to select <Standard> or enter the specific port number on which the Host computer should listen for each enabled protocol.  By default, the standard port for UDP and TCP is 1505.
 
NOTE: PC-Duo Host listens on all addresses. Even addresses that do not appear on the Protocols tab are monitored and can be used for communication.
Access from specific IP addresses or from a range of IP addresses can be explicitly blocked (see "TCP/IP address restrictions").
 
NOTE: PC-Duo Host can be installed on a computer that is also running PC-Duo Gateway. Both programs can have the the same protocols enabled, because they use different ports (Host uses 1505, Gateway uses 2303).
