I thought of doing something with the application that would expire the cookie. We may have to try that route. The reason we we don't have an expiration time for the cookie is that we didn't want it to expire in the middle of them using the application since it could cause major issues. We do have an session cookie that times out after 60 minutes and logs the user out. The way I understood the timeout for the BigIP cookie is that it doesn't reset when used, so if we set the timeout for 30 minutes and someone is constantly using the app for 30 minutes they would be re-loadbalanced and possibly moved to the other server. We're really just looking for a graceful way to get people to a different server. I appreciate your input and thanks for the quick response.
