ActiveTransfer allows accelerated data transfer, referred to as acceleration. Through the use of tunnels, ActiveTransfer speeds up file transfers by using the server’s full bandwidth regardless of network latency or distance.

You can configure tunnels by configuring basic settings, such as the tunnel name using the quick add feature. To configure additional settings for tunnels, see Configuring Additional Settings for a Tunnel.

The acceleration settings you specify in the following procedures will override any acceleration settings set for a template associated with a user. You can apply the same settings to roles and groups.
