inline configuration

You cannot use persist source $ip:$port. The parameters that persist source accept are the subnet mask and a timeout in seconds. You could use persist uie for this though.

 

 

If the poster is trying to use persistence, cookie insert persistence would be simple and make sense. However, it sounds like the issue is that all requests over the same client to VIP TCP connection are being sent to the same server. If the poster wants to ensure these are all load balanced, they can add a OneConnect profile to the virtual server. For more info, check the OneConnect page (Click here).

 

 

 

OneConnect with HTTP

 

 

Without OneConnect enabled, persistence data is examined only in the first request of a Keep-Alive connection, so if multiple requests are sent on the same clientside Keep-Alive connection, LTM will persist them all to the same destination as the first unless a OneConnect profile is applied (even if logic contained in an iRule dictates otherwise).
