Data Store Size. At least 1 GB of disk space is required for the data store. The default value

Maximum Number of Log Files. The default value is 2.
Note: You only need this value if you choose not to use the default MSI package (containing

VPN Port Number. When you deploy Mobile Controller components, you need to ensure
that the VPN tunnel is not optimized. If the VPN tunnel uses TCP for transport, when you
configure the acceleration policy, add a pass-through rule for the VPN port number
connected to by the client. Depending on your deployment scenario, this rule might be the
first rule in the list.
For details about acceleration policies, see the SteelCentral Controller for SteelHead Mobile
User's Guide.
VPNs that use IPSec as the transport protocol do not need a pass-through rule. This is
because IPSec is its own non-TCP/IP protocol and, by default, SteelHeads do not optimize
it.
For detailed information about pass-through rules, see the SteelCentral Controller for
SteelHead Mobile User's Guide.
Make sure you have enough memory on SteelHead Mobile clients to run the Mobile Controller.
