Figure 6- 20. General Options - Configuration window
There are two configuration options:
♦ SNMP/TFTP Configuration.
♦ Configuration.
SNMP/TFTP Configuration
In the SNMP/TFTP Configuration area of the General Options - Configuration window, configure the
options for sending requests to accommodate for different traffic loads.
To configure the SNMP/TFTP:
1. In the SNMP/TFTP Retries field, enter the number of times that the device tries to reach the
server.
2. In the SNMP/TFTP Timeout field, enter the number of seconds the device waits for a response
from the server before the request is timed out. After every new try, the number of seconds is
doubled.
For example, if 3 is entered in the SNMP/TFTP Retries field and 1 in the SNMP/TFTP Timeout
field, the device sends a request and wait for one second. If there is no response from the server
after one second, the device tries again, waiting for two seconds. The third try lasts up to four
seconds.
This doubling technique provides servers with more opportunities to respond to requests.
ConfigMaster systems operating in traffic-heavy networks waits longer before timing out
requests (i.e., make the SNMP/TFTP Timeout value large).
