CirrusF5 LTM cookie persistence encryption issue
folks, what is the default behaviour when cookie encrytion enabled, set to required. we know the client->F5 cookie is encrypted, how about F5->server?. i could see the cookie is decrypted in the cap...
Hi Prakin ,
You can try the prefered option , it means bigip accepts both encrypted and decrypted cookies.
I have another question :
is this virtual server has ( 2 IPs " 10.10.10.10 & 20.20.20.20 " ) you created it by address list ??!
I need more clarification here , you can draw your flow as well and show me.

Cirrussorry my bad, the flow would as below.
client - > F5 VIP(1.1.1.1) -> webserver (10.10.10.10, 20.20.20.20) -> kong -> F5 VIP(1.1.1.1) -> application server (10.10.10.10, 20.20.20.20).
kong -> F5 VIP(1.1.1.1) : this is where the cookie is seen unencypted and and F5 is expecitng encrypted cookie. so it can't find, thus its treating as new connection and load balanced to new server.
