Configurable Properties Description
Max Plug-ins in Method Chains Specifies the maximum number of plug-in
invocations for ISPs. The default is 100.
Max number of waiting items Specifies the maximum number of RADIUS items
that can be waiting to be processed by the policy
server. The default is 0, which means no limit.
Important!
Setting this to small numbers (for
example, less than 10) will greatly diminish server
performance.
TAOS Port Normalization Specifies how to get the real NAS port number out
of the NAS port info. This should only be used if
your NASs are running TAOS.
Character Set for Encoding Specifies the character set to use to encode string
attributes in requests.
Cache Data File Specifies the file that contains the ‘cache’ data
when using the ReadCache and WriteCache
plugins. If specified, the contents of the ‘cache’ is
written to this file on policy server shutdown and
read into the cache on policy server startup.
Cache NAS Routes Yes or No option. Specifies whether NAS IP
address and Client IP address (proxy) are stored in
the NAS Routes cache.
NAS Routes Cache Name Specifies the name of the cache to store NAS
Routes within the policy server.
Log By Item Yes or No option. If enabled, the policy server
groups all messages of a request together when the
messages are logged. If not enabled, messages from
different requests could overlap in the log output.
HTTP Total Connections Sets the maximum number of concurrent HTTP
connections to make as a client.
HTTP Connection Timeout Sets the timeout in milliseconds used when
retrieving an HTTP connection from the HTTP
connection manager. 0 means to wait indefinitely.
