connection initialization...tuning initcwnd
Hi,
I've been reading several posts by Jason Rahm. I'm wondering if you can help me or anyone with experience setting tcp settings on F5. I have some questions around tcp initialization costs. When F5 acts as the server...and I'm asking for lots of data over a new connection....Is there an initial congestion window size I can set? When it's acting as a client and I'm sending lots of data..is there a receive window I can set?
If I'm using oneconnect to multiplex connections on back-end of F5...will the initial congestion window have memory of previous settings..or will it go through slow start again?
I see these settings for 11+
Initial Congestion Window Size Initial Receive Window Size
