Steelhead Appliance

[Dave_Noonan]

The unit's are out of bypass and the telnet DOES work now.  I'm no longer seeing the "INNER_DOWN" in the Steelhead.  

Is there documentation somewhere about the connection details on the "Current Connections" report?

I'm seeing "Type:      Established : RiOS Only (optimized)".  Searching found me the definition of RiOS and a technical overview but not what that "Type" means.  The session in question is optimized but there's zero data reduction happening so I'm trying to sort out why that is.

Thanks

Thanks, Edwin.  

The telnet doesn't work at the moment but I think that's because the Riverbed's are both in bypass.

Hello,

It means that the inner channel, the part of the optimized TCP session between the two Steelhead appliances, could not be setup.

If you are using the default Correct Addressing for the inner channel, check if you can setup a TCP session from the CLI:
telnet -b (this SH inpath IP address) (that SH inpath IP address) 7800

If that one doesn't complete, then you found your problem.

Searching riverbed.com hasn't found an answer so...

What does INNER_DOWN mean as a reason for a session being in "Intentional Passthrough"?

Thanks

PS. for Riverbed folks:  If it shows up in the web GUI I really should be able to put in the search box on riverbed.com and find something.  Please make the docs searchable online. 

Thank you
