What is the default TCP wait time upon connection close

Question

Hi;&nbsp;When a TCP connection is terminating, there is always a leeway time usually between 20-100 seconds to allow for any residue traffic to be passed. My question is what is the default value for this on the F5 LTM and whether it can be changed.&nbsp;&nbsp;KindlyWasfi
