Figure 3: The NFS client and the NFS server use more than one route to communicate
When the NFS client writes packets from the NFS client to the NFS server, the data might travel
through switch 1 and 2, or instead go through switch 3 and reach the NFS server. For path 1 (via
switch 1 and switch 2) the sum of the MBTD values is 2 seconds. For path 2 (via switch 3) the MBTD
value is 1 second. In this case, set CONFIGURED_IO_TIMEOUT_EXTENSION is to 2000000.
