NimbostratusPersistence Across VIPs
I have a very weird email application that requires persistence across 3 VIPs. For example, the client would originate a session to a VIP on Port 80 and the poll member will redirect a new session to a VIP on 443 or 8008, but the session needs to hit the same pool member that oringinally redirected them. All 3 of the VIPs are the same IP address with the same pool members, but with different ports.
My first thought was to write some sort of Universal persistence iRule that spans across VIPs, but I haven't found a very good example.
My only other option is very ugly doing a wildcard VIP.
Any help would be appreciated.

- You should be able to achieve this functionality by enabling the "Across Virtuals" functionality in your GUI. This will allow persistence to be maintained even while passing traffic across multiple Virtaul Servers.
If you have any further questions about this product functionality, I'd recommend getting in touch with our Technical Support staff. They're quite helpful with this sort of request.
HTH,

Rao_Lavu_53681Will this feature persist "across virtuals" work even when the second virtual is in a different data center and on a different pair of F5s?
Thx.
