7.3 Optimizing IP Performance
You can set parameters for IP packets to optimize network performance.
7.3.1 Establishing the Configuration Task
Before optimizing IP performance, familiarize yourself with the applicable environment,
complete the pre-configuration tasks, and obtain the data required for the configuration. This
will help you complete the configuration task quickly and accurately.
Applicable Environment
On certain networks, you need to modify parameters for IP packets to optimize network
performance.
Pre-configuration Tasks
Before optimizing IP performance, complete the following tasks:
l
Connecting interfaces and setting physical parameters for the interfaces to ensure that the
physical layer status of the interfaces is Up
