Get RST, want closing handshake
Is TCP::close supposed to send a reset?
How can you get a closing handshake instead of the reset?

Here's a related snippet I found:rule test_tcp_close_rule { when CLIENT_ACCEPTED { TCP::collect } when CLIENT_DATA { TCP::respond [TCP::payload] TCP::release TCP::close } } If you associate a pool with vip, bigip will send out the FIN to close connection; but if there is no pool assoicated, bigip will send reset to close the conneciton. In either situation, bigip will send the response back to client.
