LocalAddress (MQCHAR48)

 

Local communications address.

This is the local TCP/IP address defined for the channel for outbound communications, or blank if no specific address is defined for outbound communications. The address can optionally include a port number or range of port numbers. The format of this address is:

[ip-addr][(low-port[,high-port])]

where square brackets ([ ]) denote optional information, ip-addr is specified in IPv4 dotted decimal, IPv6 hexadecimal, or alphanumeric form, and low-port and high-port are port numbers enclosed in parentheses. All are optional.

A specific IP address, port, or port range for outbound communications is useful in recovery scenarios where a channel is restarted on a different TCP/IP stack.

LocalAddress is similar in form to ConnectionName, but should not be confused with it. LocalAddress specifies the characteristics of the local communciations, whereas ConnectionName specifies how to reach a remote queue manager.

This field is relevant only for channels with a TransportType of MQXPT_TCP, and a ChannelType of MQCHT_SENDER, MQCHT_SERVER, MQCHT_REQUESTER, MQCHT_CLNTCONN, MQCHT_CLUSSDR, or MQCHT_CLUSRCVR.

The length of this field is given by MQ_LOCAL_ADDRESS_LENGTH. This field is not present if Vis less than MQCD_VERSION_7.
