Reset Optimized Applications

Reset all optimized applications to enable the management console to report application performance based on the segmented application data that the management console currently receives. Normally, you do not need to reset optimization because, if that optimization is interrupted, the management console continues to report on the application.

If you are planning to use the management console to prove the benefits of optimizing different applications, resetting optimization lets you quickly compare changes in WAAS optimization. For example, if you stop optimization, the management console continues to report the unoptimized server SPAN in the application’s Server segment for up to 20 minutes before reporting the unoptimized traffic in the unoptimized application.

After you reset optimization, any unoptimized application traffic that was reported in Server segment is now reported in the unoptimized application, and currently optimized applications are reported by network segment. However, it can take up to 10 minutes for the management console to substitute the server SPAN metrics into the application’s Server segment.

Follow these steps:

  1. Click the Administration page.
  2. Click Data Monitoring, Monitoring Devices in the Show Me menu.
  3. Scroll to the WAN Optimization Device List, click and select Reset Optimized.
  4. Wait 10 minutes to see updated report data in the Optimization page.
