摘要： Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, network traffic management apparatuses, and network traffic management systems that monitor one or more messages generated by an application or one or more characteristics of one or more transmission control protocol (TCP) connections with a destination device or a source device. A determination is made when a first TCP push flag should be set for a first packet associated with data based on the monitoring. The data is provided by the application. The first TCP push flag for the first packet is set prior to the first packet being sent to the destination device via a first one of the TCP connections, based on the determination that the first TCP push flag should be set for the first packet. Accordingly, this technology more effectively manages TCP push functionality to reduce acknowledgement messages (ACKs) and thereby improve network bandwidth and device resource utilization.

摘要： Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, network traffic management apparatuses, and network traffic management systems that generate a duration corresponding to a current one of a plurality of states in a TCP connection. The duration is generated based on a difference between a stored time recorded at a previous transition to the current one of the states and a current time. The duration is stored or output as associated with the current one of the states. The stored time recorded at the previous transition to the current one of the states is then replaced with the current time. A determination is made when one or more TCP configurations should be modified based on the duration for the current one of the states. The one or more TCP configurations are automatically modified to improve TCP performance, when the determining indicates that the one or more TCP configurations should be modified.
