Node Checking and Session State

We maintain Session State info in our database. We write cookies to clients to keep track of sessions.

 

 

BigIP is doing content checking on web server nodes and doesn't accept cookies so everytime a content check is performed our site thinks that BigIP is a new user/session. This is causing our session table to grow very large.

 

 

 

Is it possible to enable BigIP to accept client cookies?

 

 

Thanks!

    DevCentral is for support of our programming APIs (iControl) and our internal rule language (iRules). For product support questions, you are going to have to go through our normal support channel.

     

     

    With that said, I don't believe what you are asking for is possible as each health check is not performed by a browser but a custom protocol specific application. You should check with Product Support though...
