Network Requirements

In the connections over HpFP, TCP, HCP tools uses UDP port 65520, TCP port 874 by default respectively. You need to make the above ports open on firewalls between a client and a server.

HpFP and TCP do not support any proxy servers.

HpFP can achieve 10 Gbps throughput with jumbo frames from 1.5 KB to 9 KB. However, less than 1.5KB frames may limit the throughput to a few Gbps, e.g., 3Gbps. Therefore, jumbo frames are essential to perform 10G throughput.

On the other hand, TCP can normally perform in more than 10Gbps environments without specific tuning. Even in LFN environments where networks are generally inefficient and slow due to many packet losses, HpFP can help enhance the performance even when jumbo frames are not available.
