Connect CDC SQData

The Controller Daemon, SQDaemon plays a key role in the authentication process by being the first point of contact for any agent requesting communication with any other agent in both single and multi-platform environments. Controller Daemons are accessed via a TCP/IP interface to an assigned Port on the platform where they are running. Their symbolic name is often synonymous with a specific Host (platform or Environment on which they are running.

Every platform where Capture Agents run requires a Controller Daemon process. The Capture Controller Daemon authenticates incoming connection requests from Engines and Utilities and transfers the opened socket to the requested Capture/Publisher.

While a Controller Daemon is optional on platforms running Engines, Precisely recommends using them to provide for secure local and remote command and control of Engines, Utility and other User agents.
