We need to file an issue on getting these documented. Judging from "git blame" . the failover settings have been around for quite a while. I cannot help you much with the failover settings, since I haven't worked in that area.
I can help you on some of the other settings since Fei and I have been digging through here recently. proxy.config.dns.max_dns_in_flight Controls how many DNS requests are allowed to be outstanding. If this limit is reached, further requests will be delayed until some responses arrive. I think this is a per thread limit. proxy.config.dns.lookup_timeout The timeout in seconds on a DNS request. proxy.config.dns.retries Number of times ATS will retry a DNS request. proxy.config.dns.local_ipv4 proxy.config.dns.local_ipv6 Specify the source address ATS uses to make DNS requests. NULL will pull the IP address from the interface On Mon, May 28, 2018 at 7:34 PM, gksa...@gmail.com <gksa...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > On 2018/05/25 16:27:08, salil GK <gksa...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hello > > > > I have a ATS ( 6.2.2 ) deployed in my server for Forward proxy.
