Description

 ASTA Servers and Clients use a proprietary messaging format with the default transport using tcp/ip. To traverse firewalls ASTA tcp/ip messaging can be made to appear as HTTP messages or actually become HTTP messsages. ASTA servers can have their AstaProtocol property changed by setting the AstaProtocol property directly or using a command line switch of http or isapi.

 

ASTAClientSockets can call serveral helper methods and run time Dialogs to configure ASTA clients to use protocols other than tcp/ip.
