Title: RE: SDU and TDU in SQL*NET

I believe the TDU  parameter is now ignored in Net8.
Our tests seems to indicate that it's fixed at 32K.

Subject: RE: SDU and TDU in SQL*NET


Here's a sample from tnsnames.ora:
. . .
yourlabel =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (SDU=1500)
    (TDU=1500)
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = yourhost.com)(PORT = 1521))
    )
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = your_service)
      (SID = your_ORACLE_SID)
    )
  )

Here's a sample from listener.ora:
. . .
    (SID_DESC =
      (SDU=1500)
      (TDU=1500)
      (GLOBAL_DBNAME = yourDB.yourhost.com)
      (ORACLE_HOME = your_ORACLE_HOME)
      (SID_NAME = your_ORACLE_SID)
    )

The MTU on Ethernet is 1500 and MTU=SDU=TDU is a recommendation I've seen.
No comments on worth...

I have recently run various statspack reports and ult report against my
8.1.6 database.  It suggests that I am sending more data on the client side
than will fit into one SQL*NET package.  I have been looking for
documentation and/or samples and have only found:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------
The SDU size should be set as a multiple of the normal transport frame size.
Since the normal Ethernet frame size is 1500, the most efficient SDU size
over an Ethernet protocol should be a multiple of 1500.
If you are using either connection pooling or connection concentration, keep
in mind that these features require an additional 16 bytes per transport.
For more information about the protocol frame size, refer to your
operating-system-specific documentation.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------

I am not sure how to set this parameter or how to find out the protocol
frame size you are using.  Anybody have any experience using this?  Is it
worth the effort?  Any samples of how to set?

Thanks,

Kathy
