AI296 Version 9.8x User’s Guide

System Configuration: General System Properties Configuration

TCP Settings

Description

The TCP settings are configured using two menu items. The configurable values are:

zTCP default window size—Sets the TCP default window size for AI296. The window size specifies how many bytes AI296 will send to another device or how many bytes another device may send to the AI296 before receiving an acknowledgement.



Note: A small default window size way slow transfers to and from AI296.

zTCP send ahead—Enables or disables AI296’s ability to send a TCP window without requiring an acknowledgment. When enabled, acknowledgment is not required. When disabled, acknowledgment is required.
