       • Additional load for recovery jobs: If selected, the specified amount of tasks will be added to the set maximum Transporter load to be used for recovery jobs exclusively. This allows for running the specified amount of concurrent recovery jobs along with other types of jobs without the need to wait for their completion. 

       • Enable Direct Connect for this transporter: When this option is enabled, you can access remote resources via a single port connection without establishing a VPN connection. The following conditions must be met at the remote infrastructure to enable this feature:

         • A NAKIVO Transporter must be installed.

         • A master password must be set for security reasons. A pre-shared key is generated based on the entered master password.

         • The Transporter port on the local machine must be exposed to external availability via the Internet.

       • Enable debug logging for this transporter: Enable/disable debug level logging for the Transporter. Having this option enabled on a permanent basis is not recommended.
