Do you have "Port Translation" disabled on the VS? The client side source port and server side one need not be kept the same.

 

 

If possible, I'd test with "one connect" enabled, to see how it behaves.

 

 

I believe the decision about whether to close connections after a request depends on the client and the server HTTP protocol.. the server might decide it wants it closed. You should take a capture of a full conversion, client side and server side, and inspect the packets.

 

 

Thanks,
