ERFORMANCE
IP performance configuration mainly refers to TCP attribute configuration. The
TCP attributes that can be configured include:
synwait timer: This timer is started when TCP sends a syn packet. If no response
■
packet is received before the timer times out, the TCP connection will be
terminated. The timeout of the synwait timer ranges from 2 to 600 seconds
and is 75 seconds by default.
finwait timer: This timer is started when the TCP connection turns from the
■
FIN_WAIT_1 state to the FIN_WAIT_2 state. If no FIN packet is received before
the timer times out, the TCP connection will be terminated. The timeout of the
finwait timer ranges from 76 to 3,600 seconds and is 675 seconds by default.
The connection-oriented socket receive/send buffer size ranges from 1 to 32
■
KB and is 8 KB by default.
Every switch stores a forwarding information base (FIB). FIB is used to store the
forwarding information of the switch and guide Layer 3 packet forwarding.
You can know the forwarding information of the switch through the FIB table.
Each FIB entry includes: destination address/mask length, next hop, current flag,
timestamp, and outbound interface.
When the switch is running normally, the contents of the FIB and the routing table
are the same. For routing and routing tables, refer to "Routing Table" on page
281.
