cookie persistence and source addr fallback

In case1, cookie persistence should fail and fallback persistence should work in case2.

Please see K30483109: Overview of Fallback Persistence for details.

Hi

1- If I configure virtual server with cookie persistence and no fallback option , what will happen if client try to reach my servers but he's blocking cookies in his browser ?

So in this case Persistence will not work. And user request will be Load-Balancing on different node based on LB configuration for each request...

2- If I configure virtual server with cookie persistence and source addr fallback option , what will happen if client try to reach my servers and he's blocking cookies in his browser ?

When you set a fallback persistence (source addr) you have to know that even your cookie persistence is working. f5 still builds a lookup table by IP source in case of problems with the initial persistence (cookie). it does not wait for cookie persistence to be faulty to enable persistence by source addr.

So in this case (cookies blocked in browser) user will be Load-Balanc using source addr persistence...

Let me now if you need more details.
