New IP : how to tune FTP send & receive buffers
Posted: Mon Oct 07, 2019 9:48 am
We’re currently testing the new IP stack V10.6
In the past on TCPIP V5.7 we used the following command to tune FTP performance :
$ TCPIP SET SERVICE FTP /SOCKET_OPTIONS=(SEND=1024,RECEIVE=1024)
I suppose the corresponding command on the new IP stack is
SERVER-CONFIG> set SEND-BUFFER-SIZE and RECEIVE-BUFFER-SIZE
However, I get an error message “?Does not match switch or keyword - "SEND-BUFFER-SIZE" :
$ ip config/server
VSI TCP/IP Server Configuration Utility
[Reading in configuration from IP$CONFIG:SERVICES.MASTER_SERVER]
SERVER-CONFIG>select FTP
[The Selected SERVER entry is now FTP]
SERVER-CONFIG>enable ftp
SERVER-CONFIG>select ftp
[The Selected SERVER entry is now FTP]
SERVER-CONFIG>set SEND-BUFFER-SIZE 1024
?Does not match switch or keyword - "SEND-BUFFER-SIZE"
SERVER-CONFIG>set SEND-BUFFER-SIZE=1024
?Does not match switch or keyword - "SEND-BUFFER-SIZE"
SERVER-CONFIG>show/full
Service "FTP":
TCP socket (AF_INET,SOCK_STREAM), Port 21
Socket Options = SO_KEEPALIVE
Flags = PASS_FOREIGN_SOCKET
INIT() = TCP_Init
LISTEN() = TCP_Listen
CONNECTED() = TCP_Connected
SERVICE() = Internal_FTP
Program = "IP$SYSTEM:FTP_SERVER.COM"
Working Set Quota = 100
What’s wrong here ?
Also, is there any corresponding command for sysconfig commands like TCPIP sysconfig -r socket sb_max=2097152 ?
