Specifying the Communications Protocol

The default protocol for Fileshare over CCI is TCP/IP (CCITCP). For Fileshare clients and servers on Windows platforms, you can also use the Named Shared Memory protocol (CCISM). Use the CCI.INI configuration file on the Fileshare client to specify which protocol to use for which Fileshare server.

To specify the Named Shared Memory protocol (CCISM) as the default protocol:
```
/cm ccism
```
To specify that the Named Shared Memory protocol is used when communicating with a specific Fileshare Server, use the /cm and /s options together:
```
/cm ccism /s server1
```
The Fileshare Client uses CCISM for communicating with the Fileshare Server named server1, whilst using the default protocol (CCITCP) for other servers.

If you are using the TCP/IP protocol, you do not need to specify it in a CCI.INI configuration file.

Note: The CCI.INI file that ships with Enterprise Server contains detailed comments that explain the various CCI.INI options that you can use to alter the basic configuration. Most of these are rarely required.
