Zusammenfassung:	Embodiments relate to protocol selection for transmission control protocol/internet protocol (TCP/IP). An aspect includes tracking connection data corresponding to a plurality of TCP/IP connections in a computer system. Another aspect includes determining, based on the tracked connection data, whether a particular connection of the plurality of TCP/IP connections is appropriate for sockets over remote direct memory access (RDMA) protocol. Another aspect includes, based on determining that the particular connection is appropriate for sockets over RDMA protocol, automatically enabling sockets over RDMA protocol for the connection. Yet another aspect includes, based on determining that the particular connection is not appropriate for sockets over RDMA protocol, automatically disabling sockets over RDMA protocol for the connection.
