Definition
Sets how often the Traffic Server checks pull groups for new articles
(and "pulls" the new articles if they exist).
The Traffic Server actively pulls (caches) news articles from pull
groups, rather than waiting for user requests. Pull groups are
designated in the
nntp_servers.config
Specifies the name of the host machine running the authentication
server. If the host machine is the Traffic Server, enter localhost.
The locally run authentication server accepts connections on this
port. If the authentication server is remote, the Traffic Server
connects to it on this port.
The authentication server will abort an authorization operation if it
does not complete in this amount of time. The client can retry the
operation.
Refer to nntp_access.config‚ on page 176
configuring authentication servers.
Clients are limited to downloading no more than this number of
bytes per second. A throttle of
not limited.
HTTPS
Configures Traffic server to restrict SSL connections to certain ports,
thereby containing attacks to designated ports
FTP
An FTP transfer requires two connections: a control connection to
inform the FTP server of a request for data and a data connection to
send the data. The Traffic Server always initiates the control
connection. FTP mode determines whether the Traffic Server or the
FTP server initiates the data connection.
PASV/PORT = The Traffic Server attempts to use PASV connection
mode. If PASV mode fails, the Traffic Server then tries PORT mode,
initiates the data connection, and then the FTP server accepts it.
PASV only = The Traffic Server initiates the data connection to the
FTP server and the FTP server accepts it. This mode is firewall
friendly, but some FTP servers do not support it.
PORT only = The FTP server initiates the data connection and the
Traffic Server accepts it.
The default value is PASV/PORT.
Specifies how long the Traffic Server waits for a response from the
FTP server. If the FTP server does not respond within the amount of
time you specify, the Traffic Server abandons the client's request for
data.
Specifies an anonymous password for FTP servers that require a
password for access.
