The customer is getting frequent disconnection from ADS (3.2) with zlib inflate error on their end (TREP 2.6). It seems, the default zlib compression doesn't work very well when there is a firewall in between. So any suggested alternatives could be very helpful.

    It is possible that the firewall can randomly corrupt the data portion of a TCP packet, especially compression data, as mentioned in this technical bulletin.

    The client may try to directly connect to ADS without a firewall to verify the problem. If it works fine without a firewall, it means that the data is corrupted by that firewall.

    Thank you. Apparently, the issue was raised in 2014 and it's a surprise that Juniper hasn't fixed it yet.
