Configuring MS-
SQL Protocol
Options

You configure MS-SQL protocol support in the Optimization Service - Protocol: MS-
SQL page. Enabling MS-SQL optimization applies default rules to increase
optimization for Microsoft Project (MS Project).

You configure MS-SQL support only if you plan to optimize MS-SQL traffic.

NOTE: The MS-SQL feature also optimizes other database applications, but you must define
SQL rules to obtain maximum optimization. If you are interested in enabling the MS-SQL
feature for other database applications, contact HP professional services.

MAPI Transparent
Pre-population

Enable MAPI Transparent Pre-population. Check this box to enable transparent pre-
population.

This feature allows email data to be delivered between the Exchange server and the client-
side appliance while the Outlook client is offline. When a user logs into their MAPI client,
the mail is already waiting in the client-side appliance and can be retrieved locally. This
feature enables email to be optimized even though it has not been seen before by the client.

Max Connections. Type the maximum number of virtual MAPI connections to the
Exchange server for Outlook clients that have shut down. Setting the maximum connections
limits the aggregate load on all Exchange servers through the configured appliance. The
default is 325.

You must configure the maximum connections on both the client and server-side of the
network.

Poll Interval. Set the number of minutes you want the appliance to poll for shut down
clients. The default is 20.

Time-out. Type the number of hours after which to time-out virtual MAPI connections.
When this threshold is reached, the virtual MAPI connection is terminated. The time-out is
enforced on a per-connection basis. Time-out prevents a build up of stale or unused virtual
connections over time. The default value is 96 hours.

Name Service Provider
Interface

NSPI port. If applicable, specify the NSPI port.

NSPI is the address book subcomponent of the Exchange protocol that is optimized by the
appliance. In certain situations (for example, clients connecting through a firewall), you
might want to force a server to listen on a single pre-defined port so that access to ports can
be controlled or locked down on the firewall.
