Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:

  • A web proxy client establishes a secure socket layer (SSL) connection to an external web server by using a server that is running Microsoft Forefront Threat Management Gateway 2010.

  • HTTPS inspection is not involved. Therefore, an end-to-end SSL tunnel between the client and the web server is established.

  • Inside this established connection, the client uploads data to the web server.

  • The connection and TCP flow to the web server are slow.


In this scenario, the upload does not finish correctly under certain circumstances.

Cause

This problem occurs after the client successfully sends all its data to the TMG proxy server The client does this even though the TMG proxy server has not yet sent all the data to the destination web server because of slow bandwidth between the TMG proxy server and the destination web server.

In this case, the TMG proxy server does not correctly handle the reminding buffer that is to be sent to the destination web server, and the TCP connection is prematurely closed.

Resolution

To resolve this problem, install the service pack that is described in the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:

2555840 Description of Service Pack 2 for Microsoft Forefront Threat Management Gateway 2010Note To enable this hotfix, you must run the setProxySocketSendBufSize.vbs script on the server that is running Forefront Threat Management Gateway 2010.

To have us run the setProxySocketSendBufSize.vbs script for you, go to the "Fix it for me" section. If you prefer to create and run the script yourself, go to the "Let me fix it myself" section.

Let me fix it myself

To create and run the script, follow these steps:

  1. Start Notepad. To do this, click Start, click Run, type notepad.exe in the Open box, and then click OK.

  2. Paste the following script into the new Notepad file:

    Const SE_VPS_GUID = "{143F5698-103B-12D4-FF34-1F34767DEabc}"
    Const SE_VPS_NAME = "ProxySocketSendBufSize"
    Const SE_VPS_VALUE = 8192
    Sub SetValue()
    ' Create the root object.
    Dim root ' The FPCLib.FPC root object
    Set root = CreateObject("FPC.Root")
    'Declare the other objects that are needed.
    Dim array ' An FPCArray object
    Dim VendorSets ' An FPCVendorParametersSets collection
    Dim VendorSet ' An FPCVendorParametersSet object
    ' Obtain references to the array object
    ' and the network rules collection.
    Set array = root.GetContainingArray
    Set VendorSets = array.VendorParametersSets
    On Error Resume Next
    Set VendorSet = VendorSets.Item( SE_VPS_GUID )
    If Err.Number <> 0 Then
    Err.Clear
    ' Add the item
    Set VendorSet = VendorSets.Add( SE_VPS_GUID )
    CheckError
    WScript.Echo "New VendorSet added... " & VendorSet.Name
    Else
    WScript.Echo "Existing VendorSet found... value- " & VendorSet.Value(SE_VPS_NAME)
    End If
    if VendorSet.Value(SE_VPS_NAME) <> SE_VPS_VALUE Then
    Err.Clear
    VendorSet.Value(SE_VPS_NAME) = SE_VPS_VALUE
    If Err.Number <> 0 Then
    CheckError
    Else
    VendorSets.Save false, true
    CheckError
    If Err.Number = 0 Then
    WScript.Echo "Done with " & SE_VPS_NAME & ", saved!"
    End If
    End If
    Else
    WScript.Echo "Done with " & SE_VPS_NAME & ", no change!"
    End If
    End Sub
    Sub CheckError()
    If Err.Number <> 0 Then
    WScript.Echo "An error occurred: 0x" & Hex(Err.Number) & " " & Err.Description
    Err.Clear
    End If
    End Sub
    SetValue
  3. On the File menu, click Save As, and then save the script as setProxySocketSendBufSize.vbs.

  4. On the File menu, click Exit to exit Notepad.

  5. Double-click the .vbs file that you saved in step 3.
