Configure MLLP

Use the service port type MLLP to connect to a Minimal Lower Layer Protocol.

This allows you to send Health Level-7 (HL7) messages which providers in the healthcare sector commonly use to transfer data. For more information on HL7, see chapter "Send HL7 messages".

When you configure your service port, you have to specify a Client and a Server. A client sends a request and a server sends a response.
