Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments
adom
-
Default:
"root"
The ADOM the configuration should belong to.

WHEN IN DOUBT, USE THE SUB OPTIONS BELOW INSTEAD TO CREATE OBJECTS WITH MULTIPLE TASKS
cifs_byte_caching
-
    Choices:
  • disable
  • enable
Enable/disable byte-caching for HTTP. Byte caching reduces the amount of traffic by caching file data sent across the WAN and in future serving if from the cache.
cifs_log_traffic
-
    Choices:
  • disable
  • enable
Enable/disable logging.
cifs_port
-
Single port number or port number range for CIFS. Only packets with a destination port number that matches this port number or range are accepted by this profile.
cifs_prefer_chunking
-
    Choices:
  • dynamic
  • fix
Select dynamic or fixed-size data chunking for HTTP WAN Optimization.
cifs_secure_tunnel
-
    Choices:
  • disable
  • enable
Enable/disable securing the WAN Opt tunnel using SSL. Secure and non-secure tunnels use the same TCP port (7810).
cifs_status
-
    Choices:
  • disable
  • enable
Enable/disable HTTP WAN Optimization.
cifs_tunnel_sharing
-
    Choices:
  • private
  • shared
  • express-shared
Tunnel sharing mode for aggressive/non-aggressive and/or interactive/non-interactive protocols.
