Configuration Examples for SSL Termination and Proxy Modes

Disabling Nagle’s Algorithm
You can disable Nagle’s algorithm within a TCP profile as shown in the following example.
ServerIronADX(config)# tcp profile tcpprofile1
ServerIronADX(config-tcp-profile-tcpprofile1)# nagle off
Syntax: [no] nagle off
Disabling the delayed ACK algorithm
You can disable the delayed ACK algorithm within a TCP profile as shown in the following example.
ServerIronADX(config)# tcp profile tcpprofile1
ServerIronADX(config-tcp-profile-tcpprofile1)# delayed-ack off
Syntax: [no] delayed-ack off
Disabling PUSH flag in outgoing data packets from the TCP transmit queue
You can disable setting PUSH flag in all outgoing data packets except when emptying the TCP
transmit queue, as shown in the following example.
ServerIronADX(config)# tcp profile tcpprofile1
ServerIronADX(config-tcp-profile-tcpprofile1)# push-bit off
Syntax: [no] push-bit off
Modifying TCP receive queue size
You can modify the TCP receive queue size, as shown in the following example. The default value is
28000 bytes.
ServerIronADX(config)# tcp profile tcpprofile1
ServerIronADX(config-tcp-profile-tcpprofile1)# rxbuf-size <size-in-bytes>
Syntax: [no] rxbuf-size <size-in-bytes>
Modifying TCP transmit queue size
You can modify the TCP transmit queue size, as shown in the following example. The default value
is 20000 bytes.
ServerIronADX(config)# tcp profile tcpprofile1
ServerIronADX(config-tcp-profile-tcpprofile1)# txbuf-size <size-in-bytes>
Syntax: [no] txbuf-size <size-in-bytes>
Applying the TCP profile to VIP for SSL terminate
In a SSL Terminate configuration, the TCP profile can be applied either to the port ssl ssl-terminate
command in the Virtual Server configuration, or to the SSL profile that is being applied to the
Virtual Server.
In the following example, the TCP profile is applied to the port ssl ssl-terminate command in the
Virtual Server configuration
ServerIronADX(config)# server virtual-name-or-ip vip1
ServerIronADX(config-vs-vip1)# port ssl ssl-terminate sslprofile myprofile
Syntax: [no] port ssl ssl-terminate <ssl-proxy> [tcp-proxy]
