Persistence

We configured Default Persistence Profile as Cookie and fallback as source address but we observed all VS doing source address persistence.   Please advise how to troubleshoot this

Is there way to configure fall back source if persistence only on demand?

 

I'm not sure that would make sense. If you waited to enable source IP persistence until you needed it, there would be nothing in the persistence table to match on. A fallback mechanism continually tracks the persistence information, but does not use it until it's needed. Are you observing that the clients are following source address persistence instead of cookie (assuming they aren't pointing to the same server), or is it just that you see lots of source address persistence records in the table?
