Why each option
OneConnect is an F5 connection multiplexing feature that allows new client-side HTTP requests to reuse pre-established server-side TCP connections.
OneConnect is an HTTP profile feature and requires a TCP profile, not a UDP profile, because it operates on persistent TCP connections.
The directionality is reversed - it is client-side requests that reuse server-side connections, not server-side requests reusing client-side connections.
OneConnect reduces the number of server-side connections, not client-side connections - each client still creates its own connection to BIG-IP.
With OneConnect enabled, BIG-IP maintains a pool of persistent server-side TCP connections and routes incoming client requests over those existing connections, avoiding the overhead of establishing a new TCP session to the server for each client. This multiplexing behavior reduces server-side connection load while each client still maintains its own independent connection to BIG-IP. The key behavior is that the client-side and server-side connection lifecycles are decoupled.
