Description

Enabled

Select this check box to activate the selected Service. Clear the check
box to disable the Service.

Priority

Services within a single Policy Group can be prioritized. The SA8220
assures more server resources to Services with high priority numbers
than to those with lower numbers. The Priority setting is an integer
from 1 (highest priority) to 5 (lowest priority), and the default is 1.

Duplicate SYN
Timeout

This value is the time interval (in microseconds) after which the
fulfillment server is declared dead if the dynamically calculated
number of duplicate SYNs (lost packets) to that server is detected. You
can specify a value from 1000 to 2,147,483,647, and the default is
500,000.

Server Timeout
(RICH only on all
models except the
SA7200)

This value is the time interval (in seconds) during which a server must
respond before it is declared dead. If the server fails to respond before
the end of timeout interval, the outstanding request is passed to another
server. This value is only available for RICH_HTTP services.

Enable Backup
Servers

This check box allows you to enable or disable servers designated as
type "Backup" to come on line if necessary to assure target response
times. For more details about servers, please see “Servers” in this
chapter.
