How to adjust max TCP/UDP connections in IOS?

Tangoseal · Apr 27, 2012

I am in search of an answer. Where do I need to look or change to figure out how to change the max TCP/UDP connections overall that my Router can handle.

Even with QoS in place I am still having a little burp here and there while downloading from the BitTorrent networks. Bit torrent will suck up some connection space on your router for sure.

Thanks. Using IOS 15.1(4)M4. ISR G2 series router. Thanks!

Im not sure about that. I know there are commands on a document about the some older routers that could you could do this.

I a sure that the sessions are in the tens of thousands of connections even for the mid range 1921 that I have.

I was more curious. I was fine tuning my QoS a little more last night and its starting to get a little smoother. Plus its forcing me to really learn how DSCP works. Confusing as heck at first but it might be making a little more sense to me now as I press on reading more material.

I was giving too much priority to p2p packets more and less to HTTP. So i changed the numbers around a little more and assigned pretty much a DSCP value of EF to my HTTP packets and now its defintitely smoother while surfing and downloading at the same time.

I still have a lot of learning to do.
