Obeying Nntp Control Messages; Client Bandwidth Throttling - HP P4535A - Web Cache Server Appliance Administrator's Manual

Chapter 3

Obeying NNTP control messages

The Traffic Server default setup for nonfeed news groups is to periodically check the parent server for new
groups, cancelled articles, and new articles. If you have enabled these periodic checks in the Configure:
Protocols page, you do not need to enable obeying control messages.
Traffic Server can be configured to obey NNTP control messages. In particular, you can enable Traffic Server
to obey ,
cancel addgroup
For example, if you select "Obey cancel control messages," Traffic Server pulls
automatically in order to obey them.

Client bandwidth throttling

You can limit the amount of bandwidth allotted to clients for downloading articles. Clients that attempt to
exceed the bandwidth limit will have each operation slowed in order to keep their bandwidth consumption to
the limit. You set the bandwidth limit (the client speed throttle) in the NNTP section of the Protocols page in
Traffic Manager Configure mode.
, and messages in the Configure: Protocols page of Traffic Manager.
