Adaptive Server Anywhere Client Synchronization Parameters
Specifies network protocol options for connecting to the MobiLink server.
dbmlsync -e adr=protocol-option; ...
TCP/IP protocol options If you specify the tcpip protocol, you can optionally specify the following protocol options:

| version=versionnumber | version |
HTTPS or HTTPS_FIPS protocols The HTTPS protocol uses Certicom RSA security. The HTTPS_FIPS protocol uses separate FIPS 140-2 certified RSA encryption software from Certicom.
Separately licensable option requiredTransport-layer security requires that you obtain the separately-licensable SQL Anywhere Studio security option and is subject to export regulations.To order this component, see Separately-licensable components. |
If you specify the HTTPS protocol, you can optionally specify the following protocol options:
| HTTPS/HTTPS_FIPS protocol option | For more information, see... |
|---|---|
| buffer_size=number | buffer_size |
| certificate_company=company_name | certificate_company |
| certificate_name=name | certificate_name |
| certificate_unit=company_unit | certificate_unit |

ActiveSync protocol During ActiveSync synchronization, ActiveSync is used to exchange data with the MobiLink provider for ActiveSync, which resides on the desktop machine. The ActiveSync protocol options describe the communications between the MobiLink provider for ActiveSync and the MobiLink synchronization server.
The address string for ActiveSync takes the following form:
stream=desktop-protocol;[desktop-protocol-options]
where:
desktop-protocol is the network protocol to use between the MobiLink provider for ActiveSync and the MobiLink synchronization server. It can be http, https, https_fips or tcpip. The default is tcpip.
desktop-protocol-options are TCP/IP, HTTP, HTTPS, or HTTPS_FIPS options, as described in the lists above.
Separately licensable option requiredTransport-layer security requires that you obtain the separately-licensable SQL Anywhere Studio security option and is subject to export regulations.To order this component, see Separately-licensable components. |
For more information, see ActiveSync provider installation utility.
You must ensure that all subscriptions for a MobiLink user are synchronized to only one consolidated database. Otherwise, you may experience data loss and unpredictable behavior.
If you are using the Redirector, see Configuring MobiLink clients and servers for the Redirector.
This option has a short form and long form: you can use adr or CommunicationAddress.
This option can also be stored in the database using the SQL statement that creates or alters a publication, subscription, or user. For more information, see:
To specify the TCP/IP, HTTP, HTTPS, or HTTPS_FIPS protocol, use the CommunicationType extended option.
For more information, see CommunicationType (ctp) extended option.
Configuring MobiLink clients and servers for the Redirector
The following dbmlsync command line illustrates how you can set this option when you start dbmlsync:
dbmlsync -e "adr=host=localhost"
To specify multiple network protocol options on the command line, enclose them in single quotes. For example,
dbmlsync -e "adr='host=somehost;port=5001'"
To store the Address or CommunicationType in the database, you can use an extended option or you can use the ADDRESS or TYPE clause. For example,
CREATE SYNCHRONIZATION SUBSCRIPTION TO sales_publication FOR ml_user1 TYPE 'https' ADDRESS host='localhost;port=2439'
