Hi Rubina, 

That’s a tcp protocol startup configuration parameter that can be used to 
preallocate half-open connections and therefore prevent the underlying pool 
from expanding. It’s especially useful if you expect applications attached to 
vpp’s host stack to open a large number of tcp connections.
