DISPLAY
list endpoint-discovery

show endpoint-discovery
options:
(default | exa | gig | kil | meg | peta | raw | tera | yotta | zetta)

DESCRIPTION
You can use the endpoint-discovery component to specify parameters for automatically discovering remote
endpoints for WAN optimization. These endpoints are configured WAN Optimization Managers on remote BIG-IP(r)
systems that advertise themselves to the configured WAN Optimization Manager on the local BIG-IP system.

EXAMPLES
modify endpoint-discovery max-endpoint-count 10

Limits the number of remote endpoints that can be discovered to ten. After discovering ten remote
endpoints, the WOM stops sending probe messages.

list endpoint-discovery all-properties

Displays the configuration parameters for the discovery of remote endpoints.

OPTIONS
auto-save
Specifies whether the system automatically saves remote endpoints that it discovers. The default value is
enabled.

description
User defined description.

discoverable
Specifies whether the WAN Optimization Manager responds to probe messages it receives from WAN
Optimization Managers on remote BIG-IP systems. The default value is enabled.

discovered-endpoint
Specifies whether the WAN Optimization Manager sends out probe messages to discover other WAN
Optimization Managers on remote BIG-IP systems in the network. The default value is enabled.

icmp-max-requests
Specifies the maximum number of ICMP probe message requests, after which the system stops sending probe
message requests until at least one message is cleared from the queue by either a timeout or a response.
The default value is 1024.

icmp-min-backoff
Specifies the maximum number of seconds to wait before abandoning an ICMP probe message request and
resending it. The range is from 0 to 255. The default value is 5.

icmp-num-retries
Specifies the maximum number of times the system sends an ICMP probe message request for a single flow.
The range is from 0 to 255. The default value is 10.

max-endpoint-count
Specifies the highest number of endpoints for the system to discover before it stops sending probe
messages. The range is from 0 to 255. The default value is 0, which indicates no limit.

mode Specifies the type of probe messages the system should send. The default value is enable-all.

The options are:

disable
Turns off probe messages.

enable-icmp
Sends only ICMP probe messages.

enable-tcp
Sends only TCP probe messages.

enable-all
Sends both ICMP and TCP probe messages.
