Setting TTL to specified value.

okrasz · Dec 12, 2005, 7:37 AM

Hi,
I have recently requested a feature to set a TTL to specified value. In a response for this I've received a message that it is allready supported as an firwall rule. I've checked it twice and I still can't find it.

Could anyone help me and tell how to do it?

Best regards,
Marcin

The setting you are looking for is called "state timeout". You find it at the bottom of the firewall rules edit page and can set it this way different for specific traffic if needed.

Are you sure this option will set Time To Live??
It's described: Leave blank for default. Amount is in seconds.
TTL unit is not second, it shows number of hops.

Ok, read that too quick. you are right. TTL is not configurable.
