1.
The appliances may have established communities already.
One appliance may not yet belong to the community.
Other appliances may belong to the same community.
2. When an appliance receives an auto-discovery option from a source the Exinda community does not know about,
It establishes a connection to that appliance and adds it to the community.
It notifies other members of the community.
This may also cause two existing communities to join together.
The Auto Discovery process is very lightweight - it adds negligible latency or delay to packets as they pass through the
Exinda appliance.
4.4.2 Configuring the Optimization Services
The Manage Optimization Services dialog allows you to start, stop, and disable the optimization services running on the
Exinda appliance. Ensure that the service that you need is running. To find the Management Optimization Services
controls, go to
Configuration > System > Optimization > Services .
CAUTION
If a service is disabled, any concurrently accelerated connections remain untouched, that is acceleration continues,
whereas any new connections are not be able to use the service. When a service is stopped, all accelerated
connections (new and concurrent) stop using the service immediately. Stopping services like SMB, TCP, and WAN
Memory might cause a failure in currently accelerated connections requiring them to be re-established.
Managing Optimization Compatibility
To enable compatibility with Exinda appliances that are running older firmware, you can manage the services that
interact with these appliances. Go to
Configuration > System > Optimization > Services
. At the bottom of the page
you can start, restart, and stop the Exinda Community service (for pre v6.4.0 appliances) and the SMB Acceleration service
(for pre v6.3.0 appliances).
