Question 4

Internet clients connecting to a virtual server to download a file are experiencing about 150 ms of latency and no packet loss.

Which built-in client-side TCP profile provides the highest throughput?

    Correct Answer: D

    For internet clients experiencing latency, the tcp-wan-optimized profile is ideal. It enhances throughput by buffering more data and reducing the number of short TCP segments sent over the network, thus optimizing performance under high-latency conditions typical of WAN connections.

GVKDOption: D

D - Correct. By configuring your virtual server to use the f5-tcp-wan profile, you can increase the amount of data the BIG-IP system will buffer while waiting for a remote client to accept it. Additionally, you can increase network throughput by reducing the number of short TCP segments the BIG-IP system sends on the network. https://my.f5.com/manage/s/article/K10281257
