    “SYN cookies are enabled by default on a NetScaler appliance to prevent SYN attacks. If your deployment requires you to disable SYN cookies, for example, for server-initiated data connections or in cases where a connection is not established because the first packet is dropped or reordered, use one of the following methods to disable SYN cookies.”
