SM User Manual January 2004
Software Release 4.1
TCP Session Garbage Timeout
Where a large network exists behind the SM, the operator can set this value to lower than the
default value of 1440 minutes (24 hours). This action makes additional resources available for
greater traffic than the default value accommodates.
UDP Session Garbage Timeout
The operator may adjust this value in the range of 1 to 1440 minutes, based on network
performance. The default value of this parameter is 4 minutes.
8.4.2 NAT Configuration Buttons with NAT Disabled
Regardless of whether NAT is enabled, the NAT Configuration page provides the following buttons:
Save Changes
When the operator clicks this button, any changes that have been made on the NAT Configuration
page are recorded in flash memory. However, these changes do not apply until the next reboot of
the module.
Undo Saved Changes
When the operator clicks this button, any changes that have been made but were not committed by
a reboot of the module are undone.
Set to Factory Defaults
When the operator clicks this button, all configurable parameters are reset to the factory settings.
Reboot
When the operator clicks this button, the module reboots. When the operator has changed
parameters in the NAT Configuration page, the system highlights the Reboot button as a reminder
that a reboot (in addition to a save operation) is required to implement the changes.
