Sets the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) chimney state for a particular application.

Syntax

add chimneyapplication [ state= ] disabled | enabled [ application= ] PathName

Parameters

state

Required. Specifies one of the following values: disabled: Disables TCP chimney offload for application. enabled: Enables TCP chimney offload for application. Applies to new connections only.

application

Required. Specifies the application name and path.

Examples

Following are two examples of the add chimneyapplication command.

add chimneyapplication disabled c:\path\database.exe

add chimneyapplication state=disabled application=c:\path\database.exe

Sets the TCP chimney state for a source port, destination port pair.

Syntax

add chimneyport [ state= ] disabled | enabled [ localport= ] *| Integer [ remoteport= ] *| Integer

Parameters

state

Required. Specifies one of the following values: disabled: Disables TCP chimney offload for the local port, remote port pair. enabled: Enables TCP chimney offload for the local port, remote port pair. Applies to new connections only.

localport

Required. Specifies the source port. An asterisk (*) specifies all ports. To specify a specific port number, provide a value for Integer.

remoteport

Required. Specifies the destination port. An asterisk (*) specifies all ports. To specify a specific port number, provide a value for Integer.

Examples

Following are two examples of the add chimneyport command.

add chimneyport disabled 10000 *

add chimneyport state=disabled localport=10000 remoteport=*

Deletes the application from the TCP chimney offload selection table.

Syntax

delete chimneyapplication [application=] ApplicationName

Parameters

application

Required. Specifies the application name and path.

Example

Following are two examples of the delete chimneyapplication command.

delete chimneyapplication c:\path\database.exe

delete chimneyapplication application=c:\path\database.exe

Deletes the port entry from the TCP chimney offload selection table

Syntax

delete chimneyport [ localport= ] *| Integer [ remoteport= ] *| Integer

Parameters

localport

Required. Specifies the source port. An asterisk (*) specifies all ports. To specify a specific port number, provide a value for Integer.

remoteport

Required. Specifies the destination port. An asterisk (*) specifies all ports. To specify a specific port number, provide a value for Integer.

Examples

Following are two examples of the delete chimneyport command.

delete chimneyport 80 *

delete chimneyport localport=80 remoteport=*

Removes all user configured settings and resets all TCP parameters to their default values.

Syntax

reset

Sets TCP parameters that affect all connections.

Syntax

set global [ [ rss= ] disabled | enabled |default ] [ [ chimney= ] disabled | enabled | default ] [ [ autotuninglevel= ] disabled | highlyrestricted | restricted | normal |experimental ] [ [ congestionprovider= ] none |ctcp |default ] [ [ ecncapability= ] disabled | enabled | default ] [ [ timestamps= ] disabled | enabled | default ]

Parameters

rss

Optional. Specifies one of the following values:

disabled: Disable receive-side scaling.

enabled : Enable receive-side scaling.

default : Restore receive-side scaling state to the system default.

Chimney

Optional. Specifies one of the following values:

disabled: Disable Chimney offload.

enabled : Enable Chimney offload.

default : Restore Chimney offload state to the system default.

autotuninglevel

Optional. Specifies one of the following values:

disabled: Fix the receive window at its default value.

highlyrestricted: Allow the receive window to grow beyond its default value, but do so very conservatively.

restricted: Allow the receive window to grow beyond its default value, but limit such growth in some scenarios.

normal: Allow the receive window to grow to accommodate almost all scenarios.

experimental: Allow the receive window to grow to accommodate extreme scenarios. WARNING: This can dramatically degrade performance in common scenarios and should only be used for research purposes.

congestionprovider

Optional. Specifies one of the following values:

none: Use the built-in standard congestion control algorithm.

ctcp: Use the add-on Compound TCP congestion control algorithm.

default: Restore the selected provider to the system default.

ecncapability

Optional. Specifies one of the following values:

disabled: Disable ECN Capability.

enabled: Enable ECN Capability.

default: Restore ECN Capability state to the system default.

timestamps

Optional. Specifies one of the following values:

disabled: Disable RFC 1323 timestamps.

enabled: Enable RFC 1323 timestamps.

default: Restore RFC 1323 timestamps state to the system default.

Examples

Following are two examples of the set global command.

set global enabled enabled normal

set global rss=enabled chimney=enabled autotuninglevel=normal

Shows TCP Chimney application filters.

Syntax

show chimneyapplications [ [ level= ] normal | verbose ]

Parameters:

level

Optional. Specifies one of the following values:

normal: Display the TCP connect IPv4 filters in the TCP chimney offload table. This is the default value.

verbose: Display filters for all events in the TCP chimney offload table.

Shows TCP Chimney port filters.

Syntax

show chimneyports [ [ level= ] normal | verbose ]

Parameters:

level

Optional. Specifies one of the following values:

normal: Display the TCP connect IPv4 filters in the TCP chimney offload table. This is the default value.

verbose: Display filters for all events in the TCP chimney offload table.

Shows TCP parameters that affect all connections.

Syntax

show global [ [ store= ] active | persistent ] ]

Parameters

store

Optional. Specifies one of the following values:

active: Show information in the stack (default).

persistent: Show persistent information.
