  • 1.  128T: Selective Encryption and Session Optimization

    Posted 04-24-2019 10:42
    Hi All,

    Just a few questions around 2 features;

    1) Selective Encryption
    - To my knowledge, this feature is always on, and inspects SSL/TLS handshakes to determine if a session between client and server is encrypted. If it is encrypted, the 128T node will not re-encrypt the data-in-flight. Is this true?

    2) Sessions Optimisation
    - What are the metrics for this feature to be activated? I understand that there is a slider in the GUI for this feature to be considered when forwarding traffic.
    2.1) Is there a latency and bandwidth limit to when this will be activated on a session and when it won't?
    2.2) To take advantage of this feature, the session does not have to be between 2 128T nodes, correct? (Can this be applied to direct internet-bound traffic as well?)
    2.3) Will the metrics that are taken into consideration for this feature be customisable in future releases? 

    Regards,
