By default, the SOS controller’s REST API runs at the controller’s IP on TCP port 8080. An HTTP client can be used to leverage the API. The popular utility curl is used throughout this document as an example HTTP client. For more information on curl, please refer to curl’s documentation. The following is a general example on how to use curl:

'{ "parallel-connections" : "<integer>",

"buffer-size" : "<integer>",

"queue-capacity" : "<integer>",

"hard-timeout" : "<integer>",

"idle-timeout" : "<integer>" }'

'{ "code" : "<integer>",

"message" : "<string> }'

Modify the running configuration of SOS.

User need not supply all data – only those parameters to set/change.

Input data is a JSON object of key:value pairs.

<integer> should be replaced with a zero or positive value.

Returns 0 code for success; all others indicate failure.
