Configuring Tcp Optional Parameters - 3Com 4510G Configuration Manual

[SwitchA-Vlan-interface3] ip address 1.1.1.2 24
[SwitchA-Vlan-interface3] quit
[SwitchA] interface vlan-interface 2
[SwitchA-Vlan-interface2] ip address 2.2.2.2 24
# Enable VLAN-interface 2 to forward directed broadcasts.
[SwitchA-Vlan-interface2] ip forward-broadcast
Configure Switch B
# Enable Switch B to receive directed broadcasts.
<SwitchB> system-view
[SwitchB] ip forward-broadcast
# Configure a static route to the host.
[SwitchB] ip route-static 1.1.1.1 24 2.2.2.2
# Configure an IP address for VLAN-interface 2.
[SwitchB] interface vlan-interface 2
[SwitchB-Vlan-interface2] ip address 2.2.2.1 24
After the above configurations, if you ping the subnet broadcast address (2.2.2.255) of VLAN-interface
2 of Switch A on the host, the ping packets can be received by VLAN-interface 2 of Switch B. However,
if you disable the ip forward-broadcast command, the ping packets cannot be received by the
VLAN-interface 2 of Switch B.

Configuring TCP Optional Parameters

TCP optional parameters that can be configured include:
synwait timer: When sending a SYN packet, TCP starts the synwait timer. If no response packet is
received within the synwait timer interval, the TCP connection cannot be created.
finwait timer: When a TCP connection is changed into FIN_WAIT_2 state, the finwait timer is
started. If no FIN packets is received within the timer interval, the TCP connection will be
terminated. If a FIN packet is received, the TCP connection state changes to TIME_WAIT. If a
non-FIN packet is received, the system restarts the timer upon receiving the last non-FIN packet.
The connection is broken after the timer expires.
