Performance Http Oneconnect Mask

Hello,

 

 

Does the Performance http use the default Oneconnect source Mask (0.0.0.0) ?

 

 

Thanks in advance;

    Hi Flo,

     

     

    Based on SOL8024 (Click here), I think it's safe to assume a 0.0.0.0 mask is used. All server side connections could potentially be pooled for use for any client's requests:

     

     

     

    OneConnect functionality

     

     

    FastHTTP incorporates basic OneConnect functionality to minimize the latency imparted by TCP three-way handshakes between the BIG-IP and the node. Whenever possible, FastHTTP will choose to re-use an existing connection to a node rather than create a new one.

     

     

     

     

    I take 'whenever possible' to mean 'for any client'.
