Setting tcp Profiles in iRules

I have several virtual servers that are to be accessed over both the local LAN and (Much) lower speed WAN connections... There are two different TCP profiles that can be used (In addition to the many tweaks available).

 

But I can't find a way to vary the TCP profile in use on a VS from an iRule. Is there a way that I've missed?

 

 

TIA

  • There is no way to switch TCP profiles on the fly - you have to use a device like GTM to determine whether your clients are WAN or LAN-based and send them to the properly optimized VS.
  • The tcp-lan-optimized profile is fairly decent for both wan and lan traffic in my experience if you have to choose.
