DFP Password Info

This dialog box helps you modify or reset the password used in the Dynamic Feedback Protocol (DFP).

Procedure

  1. Right-click the device, then select Configure > SLB Statistics.

  2. With a server load balancing (SLB) instance selected, click DFP Password. The following information is displayed.

Pending Password (slbDfpPasswordPending)

Password setting Period (slbDfpPasswordTimeout)

DFP Password Row status (slbDfpPasswordRowStatus)


Pending Password (slbDfpPasswordPending)

The pending password the Dynamic Feedback Protocol (DFP) uses for MD5 authentication within password timeout ticks.

The password should be set within the slbDfpPasswordTimeout. If modified twice within the time interval given by slbDfpPasswordTimeout, the password and timeout of the first modification are forgotten and replaced by the password and timeout of the second.


Password Setting Period (slbDfpPasswordTimeout)

The time interval between setting the pending password and removing the current password.


DFP Password Row Status (slbDfpPasswordRowStatus)

The management station uses row status to create or delete a row entry in slbDfpPasswordTable, following the RowStatus textual convention.
