And what is the reason the default tcp profile buffer rules predefined on F5 is against the rules mentioned ?
tcp: Proxy buffer high: 49152 bytes Proxy buffer low: 32768 bytes Receive window: 65535 bytes Send buffer: 65535 bytes
Also the tcp wan optimized and tcp lan optimized does not follow the last mentioned?
Proxy Buffer High should be significantly larger than Proxy Buffer Low (we like to use a 64 KB gap) to avoid constant flapping to and from the zero-window state on the receive side.
