5. Management Agent
5.1. Communication
The agent uses a TCP connection over IP to communicate with the client. After the connection
is established, SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption is enabled using the Open SSL libraries.
The agent listens on a TCP port for new incoming connections from clients. This port is set to
35001 by default. It may be changed in the configuration file for the agent. The agent needs to
be restarted after the change.
5.2. Configuration
The agent uses a configuration file uwmgr.conf, which is in the agent's installation directory in
/etc/chelsio-uwire. The only configurable parameter available for the agent is the TCP listening
port, which can be specified with syntax similar to the example below: PORT 35001. After
changing the port, please restart Management Agent for changes to take effect.
5.3. Service configuration
The agent is installed as a service on the system, and enabled to start on boot. The following
sections will describe the procedure to configure service startup manually:
5.3.1. Service startup configuration
The service name is chelsio-uwire_mgmtd and can be configured using the chkconfig utility. The
service startup configuration can be viewed and modified as below:
