ISPPlanet Cache Review Series - InfoLibria DynaCache 220i

Configuration and Script Files

Parameters entered during setup become part of a text file, modified with "config" commands. Active, boot, and saved config files can be viewed and transferred via TFTP. Command sequences can even be automated with script files, uploaded via FTP.

Many configuration changes can be applied after saving by reloading a subsystem; others require a reboot. These features cater to production networks where reloads must be avoided and fallback to an earlier working version must be readily available.

Network configuration is fairly basic. Static routes can be entered, but we didn't spot TCP tuning options. Customizations are undoubtedly performed by InfoLibria using the built-in tech support account (disabled by default). Diagnostic commands are available to view and configure physical options, such as setting port speed, restarting the DynaLink, and examining packet counts.
