Chapter 10 Applications The following table describes the labels in this screen. Table 40 Applications > Download Service > Preferences > BitTorrent LABEL DESCRIPTION Port Number Assign a port number for BitTorrent downloads. You can select a number from 2 to 65536. It is recommended to use a port number greater than 1025. DHT Select Enable or Disable to use Distributed Hash Table (DHT) or not. Max. download rate Max. upload rate Note: When you use DHT, the NSA will also attempt to open a UDP port one number smaller than the BitTorrent port number. So if the BitTorrent port number is 9090, the NSA uses UDP port 9089. You may need to limit the bandwidth the NSA uses for BitTorrent downloads if your network's other Internet applications are not getting enough downstream bandwidth. 0 has the NSA impose no restriction. You may need to limit the bandwidth the NSA uses to share files through BitTorrent if your network's other Internet applications are not getting enough upstream bandwidth. 0 has the NSA impose no restriction. If you do not allow any uploads, (for example, you set a limit of 1 KB/s) you will not have a good standing in the BitTorrent community. Maximum Number of Active Torrents Maximum Number of Seeding Jobs Maximum Number of Active Connections Keep Sharing While Email notifications Edit IP Filter Apply Note: The settings for maximum download/upload rates would not affect peers accessing the NSA from the same LAN. Specify how many simultaneous BitTorrent downloads are allowed on the NSA. You can enter a number from 1 to 10. Specify how many simultaneous seeds are allowed on the NSA. Enter a number from 1 to 10. This value cannot exceed the one you configured in the Maximum Number of Active Torrents field. Specify how many active connections are allowed on the NSA. Enter a number from 1 to 500. This specifies the number of computers that can connect to the NSA to download files being shared by the NSA. With BitTorrent, the NSA starts sharing a file while you are downloading it. Set how long to continue sharing a file after the NSA finishes the download. Select Upload/Download Ratio to keep sharing a file until the NSA has uploaded a specific percent compared to the download. Select Seeding Time to keep sharing a file for a specific number of minutes after the download finishes. Continuing to share a file helps other BitTorrent users finish downloading it. Sharing out at least as much as you download helps keep you in good standing in the BitTorrent community. Enter -1 to share a file indefinitely. Leave both check boxes blank to have the NSA stop sharing the file as soon as the download finishes. If you select both options, the NSA keeps sharing a file until both conditions exceed the values you configure. For example, you entered 150% in the Upload/Download Ratio field and 120 minutes in the Seeding Time field. The NSA keeps sharing a file until it has shared 1.5 times the size of the file and has passed 120 minutes. Select whether or not to send emails to the email address configured for emailing log reports (see Section 17.4.2 on page 316) when the NSA starts downloading the file, seeding the file, and/or finishes downloading the file. Click this to enable or disable IP filtering for BitTorrent downloads. Refer to Section 10.6.4 on page 199 for information about the fields in this screen.
