Send and Receive Buffers
These settings control the size of the buffers used for data transfers. Cerberus will read and write packets of this size for send and receive operations.
| Socket Send | Specifies the total per-socket buffer space reserved for sends. This value is in bytes. Maximum of 1048676 bytes. |
| Socket Receive | Specifies the total per-socket buffer space reserved for receives. This value is in bytes. Maximum of 1048676 bytes. |
| FTP Send | The size of the send buffer used for reading file data and writing data to the network for unencrypted FTP transfers, in bytes |
| FTP Receive | The size of the receive buffer for reading network data and writing data to files for unencrypted FTP transfers, in bytes. |
Listener Advanced Settings
These are advanced settings for Listeners
| Undetected IP Address | If Cerberus fails to detect an IP Address, you can input the undetected IP address here. A service restart is required after adding the IP. |
Windows Advanced Settings
| Respond to power management events | If enabled, Cerberus will attempt to gracefully shutdown and startup in response to power suspend and resume events. May allow more graceful recovery from suspending and resuming the system. |
| Shutdown Server when Windows is shutting down | Detects operating system shutdown or restarts and tries to gracefully terminate all connections and ensure all server settings are saved. |
| Try Alternative Active Directory Group Check | Uses an older method of checking an AD Active Directory user's group information. This fallback method may work in some situations when Cerberus cannot reliably detect all of the groups an AD user is a direct member of. |
Events Advanced Settings
These are advanced settings for Listeners
| Show Event Queue Sizes |
Adds a new pane to the Cerberus User Interface Summary pane showing a list of messages queued by Cerberus |
Web Client Advanced Settings
| Force Reload of Web Client Resources |
Cache BustingIf you modify any Web Client templates or JavaScript outside of Cerberus, you can force users' browsers to refresh these resources and not use previously cached versions. This control is a one-time action; after saving, this value will automatically be turned off again. Once saved, this change is immediate. |
| Use Legacy Client UI | Toggle this option to return back to legacy web client styling |
| Enable Instrumentation |
Cerberus Support may request you toggle this option to enable additional logging to capture memory and CPU usage. This information can be used by Cerberus support to diagnose potential performance bottlenecks and understanding the system's behavior over time. This feature should only be enabled under the guidance from a member of the Cerberus support team and is not designed for routine use. |

| Enable BETA Features |
