Control TCP Maximum Segment Size

Anyone know how to control the TCP MSS that an LTM will advertise, assuming the Proxy Maximum Segment option in the TCP profile is not enabled? I can't seem to find this detail.

    I don't think this can be done at the gui. However, I think you can do this at the linux level. If I recall you can change the MSS using IP tables and/or ifconfig. My suggestion is first contacting F5 Support and see if have something for you already.
