TCPNODELAY

Edit online

The TCPNODELAY option specifies whether the server disables the delay of sending successive small packets on the network.

Change the value from the default of YES only under one of these conditions:
  • You are directed to change the option by your service representative.
  • You fully understand the effects of the TCP Nagle algorithm on network transmissions. Setting the option to NO enables the Nagle algorithm, which delays sending small successive packets.
