Prevent three way handshake on VIP when nodes unavailable

Very simple setup VIP and pool, if all nodes are unavailable (failed health check) we don't want the VIP to respond on a three-way handshake ... which it does by default due to the full-proxy feature ...

Oddly enough, when I tested on 9.4, I think 'discard' also triggered a reset (!?).

 

 

I believe that when you add a TCP profile to a virtual server, there is no way to prevent TMM from completing a three way handshake.
