Options range=range
Used to specify the index of the network service to which the rest of the
command’s options apply. For more information on using this option, see
"Index numbers and changing default port numbers"
state={on|off}
Used to enable or disable a given network service.
ipport=network port
Used to change the network port on which a given network service listens.
See "Supported network services and their default network port numbers"
for more information on the network services available.
keepalive={on|off}
Indicates whether or not TCP keepalives will be sent for specified range of
network services. If set to on, keepalives will be sent, if it is off,
keepalives will not be sent.
Configurable TCP keepalive parameters, for example, how many
keepalives to send and when to send them are configured globally via the
“set network” command (see "set network").
nodelay={on|off}
Used to allow unacknowledged or smaller-than-maximum-segment-sized
data to be sent for the specified range of network services.
The “nodelay” option disables Nagle’s algorithm, which is on by default,
for some TCP services. The purpose of Nagle's algorithm is to reduce the
number of small packets sent. The algorithm establishes not sending
outgoing data when there is either unacknowledged sent data, or there is
less-than-maximum segment size (typically around 1500 bytes for
Ethernet) worth of data to be sent. While this algorithm allows for efficient
data transmission, there are times when it is desirable to disable it.
