Control		Description
General Settings		Enable Asymmetric Routing Detection. Specify this option to detect asymmetric routes
		in your network.
		Enable Asymmetric Routing Caching. Specify this option to enable the asymmetric
		routing cache in the HP EFS WAN Accelerator. If asymmetric routing is detected, the
		pair of IP addresses, defined by the client and server addresses of this connection, is
		cached on the HP EFS WAN Accelerator. Further connections between these hosts are
		not optimized until that particular asymmetric routing cache entry times out.
		Detecting and caching asymmetric routes does not optimize these packets. If you want to
		optimize asymmetric routed packets you must make sure that packets going to the WAN
		always go through an HP EFS WAN Accelerator either by using a multi-port HP EFS
		WAN Accelerator, connection forwarding, or using external ways to redirect packets,
		such as WCCP or PBR.
		For detailed information, see “Enabling Connection Forwarding” on page 68 or the HP
		StorageWorks Enterprise File Services WAN Accelerator Deployment Guide.
