NameServer as an optional client connection request handler

Configuring a NameServer to work with the AppServer, a DataServer, a SonicMQ Adapter, or a WebSpeed Transaction Server is optional. Depending on the way you configure and use the OpenEdge product, you can decide if you want to specify a controlling NameServer. For example, your configuration might be simple and not require location transparency or load balancing, or it might be more complex and, therefore, dependent on those features.
