Enables latency detection to determine whether to optimize or pass through a connection.

None

When latency between peers is low enough, simply passing through unoptimized traffic can be faster than transmitting optimized traffic.

This command enables peer appliances to pass through traffic without optimizing it when the latency between the peers is below the configured threshold. The latency threshold is in milliseconds and the default is 10 ms. You can change the threshold with the in-path latency-threshold command. The client-side SteelHead calculates the latency.

When enabled, you can specify the Ignore Latency Detection flag in peer in-path rules, as needed.

The no command option disables the in-path latency detection.
