turbo
IP-45™ must be placed in the link such that it has visibility of TCP traffic in both directions, i.e., the
forward traffic as well as the TCP acknowledgments must go through the unit. If the unit is placed such that it
only has visibility of forward traffic or TCP acknowledgments, all such TCP sessions through turboIP-45 will
not be accelerated.
During configuration of turboIP-45, a reboot is required for the three following changes; all other changes are
immediately in effect:
• Initial Configuration Wizard
• Restore to Factory Defaults
• Upgrading of the Unit
