Persistence using Jsessionid in the HTTP path

Hi ,

 

 

I am trying to acheive the session persistence using the following IRULE assigned to Universal persistence profile(checked - Matched across the services)

 

 

In the VS - default persistence is Universal and fallback is Source_addr affinity.

 

 

The application is not working Eventhough the IRULE matching the string (identified using the stats and logs) and the logs mentioned using the persistence record from the path .

 

 

The Tcpdump on the servers show the traffic from the specific Jsessionid is round robin between the servers .

 

 

The irule i used for persistence is attached to this discussion forum.

 

 

Please advice me the recommended configuration

 

 

Thanks

    Hi Raj,

     

     

    What do you see in the logs when the failure occurs? Do you have a OneConnect profile added to the virtual server? This is necessary whenever you're doing per HTTP request persistence. If you're using SNAT on the serverside connection, you should use a /0 source mask on the OneConnect profile. If you're not doing source address translation on the serverside connection, create a custom /32 source mask OneConnect profile and add that to the virtual server.

    Hi Aaron,

     

     

    Enabling the oneconnect profile fixed the issue.

     

     

    Thanks again.
