Hi Ashik,

to load balance individual SYSLOG messages, you have to make sure...

  1. Your SYSLOG client are using UDP
  2. Persistence profiles are disabled on your Virtual Server.
  3. Round Robin Load Balancing is enabled on your pool.
  4. Every pool member has assigned the same priority group.
  5. The "Datagram LB" option on your UDP profile is enabled.

  6. If you have just enabled the "Datagram LB" option, then make sure to issue a: 

    tmsh delete sys connection cs-client-addr 1.2.3.4 protocol udp

Cheers, Kai
