Tuning the DRAC 4 for Satellite Connectivity
The racadm CLI may be used to modify the network tuning properties of the DRAC 4. It is also possible
to use the racadm.cfg file to modify these properties (similar to the manner in which .ini files are used).
racadm config -g cfgNetTuning -o cfgNetTuningNicMtu <
value >
racadm config -g cfgNetTuning -o cfgNetTuningIpTtl <
value >
racadm config -g cfgNetTuning -o cfgNetTuningIpReassTtl <
value >
racadm config -g cfgNetTuning -o cfgNetTuningTcpSrttBase <
value >
racadm config -g cfgNetTuning -o cfgNetTuningTcpSrttDflt <
value >
racadm config -g cfgNetTuning -o cfgNetTuningTcpReXmtMin <
value >
racadm config -g cfgNetTuning -o cfgNetTuningTcpReXmtMax <
value >
racadm config -g cfgNetTuning -o cfgNetTuningTcpMsl <
value >
where <value> is obtained from Table A-3.
NOTICE: Although you can configure these parameters, it is recommended that you only use the settings
described here. Other settings may adversely effect the DRAC 4's ability to communicate with other network nodes.
