Hello Myoe,

 

This setting "Require A Consistent Inbound IP For the Entire Web Session" will prevent a web session to connect from different IP address.

 

"By disabling this security setting, the BIG-IP system will no longer terminate the connection if the inbound IP address changes for an authenticated session."

 

as explained here :
