Hi,
Thanks for posting in Q&A platform.
TCP timestamps are used to improve performance as well as protect against late packets messing up your data flow. If you disable TCP timestamps you should expect worse performance and less reliable connections. This is the case regardless of the method used to disable TCP timestamps.
Any modifications made to packets by a middlebox can cause additional problems, because TCP endpoints are not required to take such modifications into account.
TCP timestamps are required to grow monotonically over time. Thus they are necessarily predictable.
So in general, it is not recommended to disable TCP timestamp option. For more detailed information, please refer to the RFC below:
TCP Extensions for High Performance
