Persistence source addr (Source Address Affinity type)

Hi Joe,

I just gave it a try in under v11.5.1 (virtual server in standard mode with http-profile and source address affinity.

And I was a bit surprised to see the persistence records to be reset to 0 with each new request in a keep-alive connection.

Same result in performanceL4 mode.

By now I was convinced persistence records will be updated with new connections only and after connection close. This used to be the case in the past.

But according to AskF5 solution 11109 this was changed.

To monitor the persistence table you can run the following on CLI:

watch -n 1 -d 'tmsh show ltm persist persist-records'

You can add the "all-properties" parameter and limit the output by setting additional properties.

Thanks, Stephan
