Use the WebAdmin Interface to configure the XIMSS module. Open the Access page in the Settings realm:

Use the Log setting to specify the type of information the XIMSS module should put in the Server Log. Usually you should use the Major (message transfer reports) or Problems (message transfer and non-fatal errors) levels. But when you experience problems with the XIMSS module, you may want to set the Log Level setting to Low-Level or All Info: in this case protocol-level or link-level details will be recorded in the System Log as well. When the problem is solved, set the Log Level setting to its regular value, otherwise your System Log files will grow in size very quickly.

When you specify a non-zero value for the Maximum Number of Channels setting, the XIMSS module creates a Listener. The module starts to accept all XIMSS connections that clients establish in order to communicate with your Server. The setting is used to limit the number of simultaneous connections the XIMSS module can accept. If there are too many incoming connections open, the module will reject new connections, and the client should retry later. If you need to recover data (not just

By default, the XIMSS module Listener accepts clear text connections on the TCP port 11024. Follow the Listener link to tune the XIMSS Listener. This information is critical when selecting the correct

XIMSS connections can be made to TCP ports served with other CommuniGate Pro modules. If the first symbol received on a connection made to the HTTP module is the < symbol, the HTTP module passes the connection to the XIMSS module.

When a connection is passed:

• the logical job of the passing module completes.
• the logical job of the XIMSS module is created, in the same way when an XIMSS connection is received on a port served with the XIMSS module.
• the XIMSS module restrictions for the total number of XIMSS channels and for the number of channels opened from the same IP address are applied.

When all users initiate XIMSS connections via other Module ports, you can disable the XIMSS Listener by setting all its ports to zero.

When a Flash client connects to an XMLSocket server (such as the CommuniGate Pro XIMSS module), it can send a special policy-file-request request. The XIMSS module replies with an XML document allowing the client to access any port on the Server.

When a user is authenticated, the XIMSS module creates a XIMSS session. The current XIMSS module TCP connection can be used to communicate with that session.

A XIMSS session can be created without the XIMSS module, using special requests sent to the HTTP User module. See the XIMSS Protocol section for more details.

The XIMSS session records in the System Log are marked with the XIMSS tag.

If you need to recover data (not just make the drive work), do not run the MP Tool. Instead, use ChipGenius (Windows) or lsusb -v (Linux) to query deeper parameters:

The Chipsbank CBM2099 controller (VID 1E3D / PID 198A) is neither good nor bad – it’s an entry-level, functional piece of silicon. For $5-10, a new USB 3.0 drive from a reputable brand (SanDisk, Samsung, Kingston) will offer better performance and reliability. However, if you enjoy tinkering with firmware tools and recovering seemingly dead hardware, the CBM2099 is a great learning platform.

This question appears frequently in forums because the VID/PID combination is unknown to most users. Generally, no – the ID itself is legitimate hardware.

However, malicious USB devices (like Rubber Ducky or BadUSB) can spoof any VID/PID. To be safe:

If your PC has always had a fingerprint reader and you just reinstalled Windows, this ID is your normal hardware – not malware.

ID

This field contains the XIMSS numeric session ID. In the CommuniGate Pro Log, this session records are marked with the XIMSS-nnnnn flag, where nnnnn is the session ID.

IP Address

This field contains the IP address the client has connected from.

Account

This field contains the name of the client Account (after successful authentication).

Connected

This field contains the connection time (time since the client opened this TCP/IP session).

Status

This field contains either the name of the operation in progress or, if there is not pending operation, the current session status (Authenticating, Selected, etc.).

Running

If there is an XIMSS operation in progress, this field contains the time since operation started.

XIMSS activity can be monitored with the CommuniGate Pro Statistic Elements.
