steelhead name (Interceptor)
Configures Interceptor-to-SteelHead peering communication.
Syntax
[no] steelhead name <hostname> {additional-ip <ip-address> | main-ip <ip-address> [port <port> | paused] | paused | reset cap-adjustment {all | perm}}
Parameters
<hostname> | Hostname of the SteelHead neighbor peer. |
additional-ip <ip‑address> | Specifies an additional IP address for the neighbors. • For IPv4 addresses, use this format: XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX/XX • For IPv6 addresses, use this format: X:X:X::X/XXX |
main-ip <ip-address> | Specifies the main IP address of the neighbor in-path X_X interface. • For IPv4 addresses, use this format: XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX/XX • For IPv6 addresses, use this format: X:X:X::X/XXX |
port <port> | Specifies a port number for communication with the neighbor. |
paused | Puts the SteelHead neighbor receiving the main connection forwarding into pause mode. |
reset cap-adjustment | Resets capacity adjustment. • all - Resets all capacity adjustments until the SteelHead returns to a normal pressure value. • perm - Resets permanent capacity adjustment. |
Usage
You can enter either IPv4 or IPv6 addresses. However, if you have enabled IPv6 connection forwarding, you must enter an IPv6 address. For more information about enabling IPv6 connection forwarding, see the SteelHead Interceptor User Guide.
This command replaces the in-path neighbor peer name command.
Pressure monitoring measures the burden on SteelHead resources, such as CPU, memory, and number of connections. Capacity adjustment is a SteelHead Interceptor strategy for relieving or avoiding pressure.
For detailed information about configuring connection forwarding, see the SteelHead Deployment Guide.
The no command option disables Interceptor-to-SteelHead peering communication and also removes the hostname.
