Table 15: Session Table Global Parameters

Parameter	Description
Session Table Status	If the device does not need to provide high performance for routed or bridged traffic, Radware recommends to disable the Session Table. Values: Enabled, Disabled Default: Disable
Session Table Aging Time	The time, in seconds, the LinkProof device keeps a non-active session the Session Table. Values: Must be greater than the TCP Handshake Timeout Default: 100
Session Table Lookup Mode	Indicates what layer of address information will be used to categorize packets in the Session Table. Values: • Full Layer3 — An entry exists in the Session Table for each source IP and destination IP combination of packets passing through the device. This mode is recommended for higher performance, unless traffic classification on layer 4 or 7 is required. • Full Layer4 — An entry exists in the Session Table for each source IP, source port, destination IP and destination port combination of packets passing through the device. This mode is the default mode for Session Table and it is recommended when traffic classification on layer 4 or 7 is required. Default: Full Layer 4
Remove Session Table Entry at Session End	Enable this feature to remove sessions from the Session Table when the session ends (only valid for Full Layer 4 Lookup Mode). Recommended to free resources when the aging time of the session table is set at a high value, however it can cause slight performance degradation. The size of the Session Table and the Session Passive Protocols Table (used to track sessions for protocols like passive FTP) is tunable using the Device Tuning pane or using the system tune CLI command. Values: Enabled, Disabled Default: Enabled
Send Reset To Server Status	Checks whether Session Table sends reset to server in case no data is transmitted through the session, because it can be a SYN attack. Values: Enabled, Disabled Default: Disabled
