CirrusRecommended Persistence for F5 working as ISP-LB ( ISP Load Balancing )
Hi, Just want to ask based on your implementation experience what is recommended persistence for ISP Load Balancing? ( Source IP Persistence or Destination IP Persistence ) Thanks.
i cant find related f5 kb on that.
however, ideal ISP load balancing should persist source&&destination ip address.
hash persistence allows to create such persistence object.
if persisting on source ip address only, access from 1 client will only uses 1 isp.

NacreousHash persistence is better choice than source ip address.
Destination ip address is definitely not proper for ISP LB.
It will make, for example access to youtube, goes through only 1 ISP

Hi zamroni777, thank very much for your input. Do you see any related F5 KB article that hash persistence is recommended for LB of ISP?
