Oct 17, 2007Least Connections/Fastest lb methods
Apologies for the length, but the situation is a bit complicated and I tend to be verbose.
I have a couple questions related to the Fastest and Least Connections load balancing methods that I can'...

Depends whether the IP:port combo is the same or different for the same server across pools.
You can aggregate stats from multiple instances of the same IP:port combo ("node") for LB decision making by selecting the LB methods with "node" specified as part of the method name.
If IP:port varies per server instance on the same node, there is no other way for LTM to know they are on the same physical server.
So you could do it if your pools were built like this:
/ Node1A -> Server1 - 10.0.0.1:80
VirtualA -> PoolA <
\ Node2A -> Server2 - 10.0.0.2:80
/ Node1B -> Server1 - 10.0.0.1:80
VirtualB -> PoolB <
\ Node2B -> Server2 - 10.0.0.2:80but not if they are built like this:
/ Node1A -> Server1 - 10.0.0.1:80
VirtualA -> PoolA <
\ Node2A -> Server2 - 10.0.0.2:80
/ Node1B -> Server1 - 10.0.0.3:80
VirtualB -> PoolB <
\ Node2B -> Server2 - 10.0.0.4:80HTH
