tcp-options

Hello,

We’re migrating our current LB from ACEs to A10.
One particular Sfarm on ACE has the following option:

parameter-map type connection TCP_IDLE_30
  set timeout inactivity 1800
  set tcp timeout half-closed 600
  tcp-options selective-ack allow
From Cisco:
selective-ack - Allows the ACE to inform the sender about all segments that it received. The sender needs to retransmit the lost segments only, rather than wait for a cumulative acknowledgement or retransmit segments unnecessarily. Selective ACK (SACK) can reduce the number of retransmitted segments and increase the throughput under some circumstances.

Q: How to apply a similiar config on A10 of the tcp-options selective-ack allow  ?
   Is it possible ?  already enabled ?

Thank you

rportela,

The Selective ACK(SACK) within the TCP Option is enabled by default in 2.7 and 4.x code. There is no option to turn off/on hence, code conversation for “tcp-options selective-ack allow” is not required. Good Luck!
