Configuration of SWSDNSCacheTest

The SWSDNSCacheTest provides DNS cache statistics for the process of the instance. The DNS cache caches IP addresses and DNS names. Web Server uses DNS caching for logging and for access control by IP address.

The default parameters associated with this test are as follows:

  • The TEST PERIOD list box helps the user to decide how often this test needs to be executed.

  • In the HOST text box, the host name of the server for which the test is to be configured has to be specified.

  • Specify the user name of the administrator of the administration server in the USER text box to which the sun java web server is being registered.

  • Specify the file that includes the password of the administrator of the administration server in the PASSWORDFILE text box.

  • Specify the IP of the administration server in the ADMINSERVER text box to which the sun java web server is registered.

  • Specify the port of the administration server in the ADMINPORT text box. By default 8989 will be provided.

  • Specify the configuration in the CONFIG text box to which the instance of the web server is being used.

  • Specify whether the SSL is enabled or not in the SSL text box.

  • Specify the path of the directory in the WEBSERVERDIR text box to which the sun java web server is installed.

  • If multiple components of the same component type are awaiting configuration, then an APPLY TO OTHER COMPONENTS check box will appear in this page. Clicking on this check box will allow you to apply the configuration to all/selected components of that type.

  • Once the necessary values have been provided, clicking on the Update button will register the changes made.

When changing the configuration for specific servers, a “*” beside the text box corresponding to the parameter signifies that these values have to be manually configured by the user. The parameter values that require to be configured will typically be prefixed with a “$” or contain a series of “*”. A value of "none" in the parameter value indicates that the corresponding parameter value can be changed if required.
