Abstract
A system includes a storage device and a processor. The storage device is configured to store a first set of values of TCP options for a first group of servers. The processor is configured to: transmit first requests to the first group of servers; receive first replies, in response to the first requests, from the first group of servers; determine the first set of values of the TCP options for the first group based on values in the first replies; store the first set of values in the storage device; receive a first message from a client to establish a connection between the client and a server in the first group of servers, and transmit, in response to the first message, a second message to the client.
