TCP profile - client and server

Thanks for the info. It is really helpful. I wish though, that the F5 developers would step up and give some guidance on this. The TCP Express capabilities are prominently advertised, however, I find that configuration recommendations are lacking. It would be very helpful if the developers would say, "If your web servers are high performance (I'm using IBM P590), and your clients all connect on high speed LAN connections, then generally best performance would be the LAN protocol to both client and to server. If the clients are on slower links or on the internet, then generally, best performance would be with WAN optimized on client and LAN optimized on server.

 

Perhaps the recommendation would be to use L4 and utilize the PVA and forgo F5 SSL termination would be best, if the servers are up to the task.
