In syncookie mode, TCP profile MSS is not honored when the BIG-IP system sends back the SYN-ACK.
A TCP virtual server might use bigger MSS in syncookie mode and not honor the MSS specified in the profile. Some configurations require a smaller MSS for certain virtual servers, rather than using the VLAN's MTU to calculate the MSS.
This occurs when the following conditions are met: -- TCP profile. -- syncookie mode.
None.
In syncookie mode, the system now honors the MSS value set in the TCP profile when the BIG-IP system sends back the SYN-ACK.
