Collin,

 

 

Thank you for the quick response. I could be misunderstanding how OneConnect works. It is my understanding that OneConnect is for reducing the number of tcp setups to a backend server. In my case i want the HTTP Request to land on one server and a response to happen from a different server which would be a different socket on the backend to the initial socket on the front end. Is this how OneConnect works?

 

 

The first server will make an http respone to the f5 but it won't be delivered to the client. The response will be sent from seever B.

 

 

 

I will do more reading with regard to one connect.

 

 

Are you able to point me to a specific one connect commands that might help in this scenario.
