> For my scenario , If I create a Standard Virtual Server ( Not L4 ) and do not create a One Connect Profile , it does not load balance the traffic ? Just to give an idea regarding client there are 3/4 clients will be making thousands of connections to this VIP.

 

You have to distinguish between connections and requests - the Standard Virtual Server will load-balance connections, but not requests.

 

The One-Connect profile in conjunction with an HTTP Profile will load-balance requests.
