NimbostratusAlways send cookie in cookie hash persistence
AltostratusIf the cookie has an expiration set, the cookie will always be sent in and This prevents an issue when the cookie expires while a session is in progress. Persistence can be lost in that case.
I hope this clears.
Lukasz_KnysakHi, this is still not the case. It works as You say in standard cookie insert persistence. In my case it is a session cookie (without expiration time) and the cookie is not and never will be sent for all the subsequent responses. Only for the first one when the user makes first http transaction. Let's say the user logs in to the application. The application does not insert this cookie for next http transactions if the user sends this cookie. BIG-IP is not aware of the real value of the cookie because what is stored in the persistence table is actually the hash value. It is not possible that LTM will insert this cookie so the question is what is really the meaning of "always send cookie" in cookie hash persistence.
