    If you have WebAccelerator licensed/provisioned, we recommend using the "http-acceleration" profile as the initial profile to be associated with your VS. If your hardware platform supports HW-based compression, it might be also make sense to disable compression in WAM (in your WAM policy), and enable LTM compression in your "http-acceleration" profile.

    Run "bp platform", under the HARDWARE INFO output, you should see one of these flavors if you have HW compression:

     

     

    +-> HARDWARE INFO

     

    | +-> oct0
