Table 22: Global Configuration General Parameters
Enable — The device is active. All users are balanced between the servers.
Disable — The device is inactive. Clients connecting to the device will be sent to the default server.
Specifies whether the device ignores flow policies for local routes and forwards the traffic according to the routing table.
Enable — For each new session, the device checks whether the session is destined to be routed locally — that is, the session requires routing but not through the default gateway (0.0.0.0 in the routing table). If this is the case, the flow policies are ignored and the traffic is forwarded according to the routing table.
Disable — Flow policies take precedence over routing.
Displays, read-only, the number of connection requests from clients that were denied by the dispatcher.
enable — Changes NAT addresses to virtual IP addresses.
enable — Does not change NAT addresses.
Values: 1 – 10
Note:
The Fragmentation Table holds the real UDP/TCP source and destination ports, the destination IP address and the Fragment ID. The device creates a new entry in the table when the first fragment arrives. The checksum of the first fragment is updated with changes to the IP addresses. Using the Fragmentation Table, the device can identify the correct source and destination ports for every fragment that arrives later, and translate (NAT) them properly. The device removes an entry from the table when the last fragment of the packet is received.
NHR Tracking Table Status
Specifies whether the device uses the tracking table to make sure that traffic destined to the device is always returned via the correct server from which it arrived.
NHR Tracking Table Aging
The time LinkProof keeps an entry in the NHR Tracking Table when no traffic matches it.
Values: 1 – 3600
Displays, read-only, the number of discarded sessions due to the configured limits being exceeded on servers since the device started.
Specifies whether the LinkProof device provides information regarding the quality of the WAN links. For each link, the latency and relative hops distance is also displayed. You can view the information in the Link Quality Table (Performance > NHR Statistics > Link Quality Table). The table displays the best links for the top 10 destinations.
Specifies whether the LinkProof device deletes obsolete entries in the Client Table that were not removed by any other process. There are cases where old Client Table entries are not removed from the Client Table even when their respective aging periods have expired. This is due to several client source-IP-addresses appearing in and disappearing from the Client Table within a very short interval. When this feature is enabled, LinkProof reviews the entire Client Table every 10 minutes (600 seconds), and deletes any entries whose aging period has expired.
