ncakmod.conf(4)

NAME

     ncakmod.conf - the ncakmod configuration file

SYNOPSIS

     /etc/nca/ncakmod.conf

DESCRIPTION

     The ncakmod.conf file is used to configure the Solaris  Net-
     work  Cache  and Accelerator ("NCA") kernel module. The file
     contains two fields, key and value.

     The status key is used to indicate if the user wants to have
     NCA  turned  on as a feature.  If the value of status key is
     enabled, then the NCA kernel module will be pushed on to the
     specified  interfaces.   If  the  value of the status key is
     disabled, then the NCA kernel module will not be  pushed  on
     to any interfaces . The default is disabled.

     The httpd_door_path key  specifies  the  path  name  of  the
     Solaris  Door RPC mechanism that will be used to communicate
     with   the   http   daemon.    The    default    value    is
     /var/run/nca_httpd_1.door.

     Use the nca_active key to indicate whether to allow  NCA  to
     actively  open  outgoing  TCP connections. The default value
     for nca_active is disabled. If set to enabled, ncaconfd sets
     up  NCA  for  each  interface and then operates as a daemon,
     allowing NCA to make outgoing TCP  connections.  This  func-
     tionality  is  possible only by using the doors interface to
     NCA. A web server  that  uses  the  sockets  interface  with
     PF_NCA   or   ncad_addr.so   cannot   connect  by  means  of
     nca_active.

     NCA supports  the  logging  of  in-kernel  cache  hits.  See
     ncalogd.conf(4). NCA stores logs in a binary format. Use the
     ncab2clf(1) utility to convert the log from a binary  format
     to the Common Log File format.

     In order to implement changes to the ncakmod.conf file,  you
     will need to reboot.
