CONFIGURING

Binding an Internet service to an IP address
If the IBM® Domino® server has multiple IBM Notes® network ports for TCP/IP (NRPC ports) and the server is also hosting the SMTP, POP3, IMAP, LDAP, Domino IIOP (DIIOP) or Internet Cluster Manager (ICM) service, you must specify the NRPC port that you want the service to use in the NOTES.INI file. If you do not specify an NRPC port for an Internet service, by default the service will use the port listed first in the Ports setting in the NOTES.INI file. You can specify the same NRPC port for multiple Internet services.

To bind the SMTP, POP3, IMAP, LDAP, DIIOP, or ICM service

About this task

Bind each NRPC port to an IP address. If you don't know the port name to enter for an NRPC port, open the Server document, click the Ports -> Notes Network Ports tab, and look at the ports associated with the TCP protocol.

Procedure

In the NOTES.INI file, specify the appropriate NRPC port for each Internet service using the information provided in the table.

Table 1. Internet service network ports

Service	Action
POP3	Enter `POP3NotesPort=port name` where port name is the name of the NRPC port that you want to link the service to.
IMAP	Enter `IMAPNotesPort=port name` where port name is the name of the NRPC port that you want to link the service to.
SMTP	Enter `SMTPNotesPort=port name` where port name is the name of the NRPC port that you want to link the service to.
LDAP	Enter `LDAPNotesPort=port name` where port name is the name of the NRPC port that you want to link the service to.
DIIOP	Enter `DIIOPNotesPort=port name` where port name is the name of the NRPC port that you want to link the service to.
ICM	Enter `ICMNotesPort=port name` where port name is the name of the NRPC port that you want to link the service to.

Example

The following example shows the lines (in bold) to add to the Ports section of the NOTES.INI file to bind two NRPC ports to their IP addresses and to specify the second NRPC port for the SMTP service. Domino adds the lines that are not bold when you use either the Domino Server Setup program or the Domino Administrator's Setup Ports dialog box to enable a port.

Ports=TCPIP, TCP1P2TCPIP=TCP, 0, 15, 0TCPIP_TCPIPAddress=0,10.33.52.1TCPIP2=TCP, 0, 15, 0TCPIP2_TCPIPAddress=0, 209.98.76.10SMTPNotesPort=TCPIP2

To bind the HTTP service

About this task

For the Domino Web server (HTTP service), you use the Server document to bind HTTP to a host name IP address.

Procedure

1. On the Internet Protocols -> HTTP tab of the Server document, enter one or more IP addresses or FQDNs for the server in the Host name(s) field.

2. Select Enabled in the Bind to host name field.

Note:

If the server is a partitioned server and has Web sites configured with separate IP addresses, enter the partition's IP address, and each Web site or virtual server's IP address in the

Host name(s)

field, separated by semicolons. Alternatively, you can use FQDNs in this field. Do not list additional Web sites and virtual hosts that have IP addresses that are already listed in this field.

Example

Example 1 -- Server partition with Web sites

The partition's host name is app01 and there are two Web sites configured for it: sales.renovations.com and accounting.renovations.com. The Web site sales.renovations.com uses the same IP address as the partition, and the Web site accounting.renovations.com has its own IP address.

Enter the following in the Host name(s) field:

9.88.43.113;9.88.46.110

In this example:

9.88.43.113 is the IP address for both the partition and the Web site sales.renovations.com.

9.88.46.110 is the IP address for the Web site accounting.renovations.com.

Example 2 -- Server partition with virtual servers

The partition's host name is app01 and there are two virtual servers (9.88.46.114 and 9.88.46.115) and one virtual host configured for it.

Enter the following in the Host name(s) field:

9.88.43.113;9.88.46.114;9.88.46.115

In this example:

9.88.43.113 is the IP address for both the partition and the virtual host sales.renovations.com.

9.88.46.114 is the IP address for virtual server 1 (accounting.renovations.com).

9.88.46.115 is the IP address for virtual server 2 (northeastsales.renovations.com).
