Overview of IP Performance Optimization

A large number of packets need to be forwarded on the network, which may cause network congestion and degrade network performance. IP performance optimization can solve the problem. You can adjust parameters or forwarding modes for IP packets to achieve optimal network performance.

IP performance can be optimized using any of the following functions:

• Configuring source IP addresses verification
• Configuring the switch to fragment outgoing IP packets
• Configuring a load balancing mode for IP packet forwarding
• Configuring the switch to discard IP packets with options
• Configuring the switch to discard IP packets with expired TTL
• Configuring the switch to discard IP packets matching no routing entry
• Discarding IP Packets with invalid destination IP addresses and recording logs
• Configuring the switch to discard IPv6 packets with specified extension headers
• Configuring an interface to forward directed broadcast packets
• Disabling the IP packet checking function
• Enabling the switch to perform layer 2 forwarding for IP traffic during a ring network switchover
• Configuring ICMP properties
• Configuring TCP properties
