Access Gateway establishes the following connections:
Access Gateway to browser
Access Gateway to web server
Access Gateway connections to the browser and Access Gateway connections to the web server involve setting up a TCP connection for an HTTP request. HTTP connections usually service only one request and response sequence, and the TCP connection is opened and closed during the sequence.
A persistent connection allows multiple requests to be serviced before the connection is closed. It saves a significant amount of processing time. To configure this type of connection, perform the following actions:
Access Gateway to Browser: Click Devices > Access Gateways > Edit > [Name of Reverse Proxy] > TCP Listen Options and select Enable Persistent Connections.
Access Gateway to Web Server: Click Devices > Access Gateways > Edit > [Name of Reverse Proxy] > [Name of Proxy Service] > Web Servers > TCP Connect Options and select Enable Persistent Connections.
