Global SLB Client Proximity Menu
The GSLB client proximity metric measures the response time between each data center and the client. Using GSLB with the client proximity metric, Alteon selects the optimal site for the end-client, when HTTP/S redirection must be performed because local resources are unavailable. This is based on the calculated shortest response time from site to site in GSLB mode.
When configuring client proximity, carefully analyze your network mask requirements. Increasing the client IP mask reduces computation time for client proximity, because the clients with the same IP subnet mask can reuse the client proximity that is already calculated.
For more information about the GSLB client proximity metric, see the Alteon Command Line Interface Application Guide.

Command Syntax and Usage |
---|
time <sec> |
| Sets the maximum time allowed for the client proximity calculation. |
mask <default netmask> |
| Sets the default netmask in dotted-decimal format for the client network cache. Masking this value against the IP address of the client derives the subnetwork address that is stored in the client network cache. |
age (entry timeout(min)> |
| Serts the timeout value in minutes. To get a fresh cache entry, use a low timeout value. The timeout value does not apply to the static entries. Values: 0 – 10080 Default: 60 |
cur |
| Displays the current client proximity configuration. |
