Removing idle connection
Hi Experts,
We are in this kind of situation wherein BIG-IP is keeping connections for more than an hour. We found out the reason why BIG-IP is behaving this way is because the server is continuously sending keep-alive packets to BIG-IP and, this is also the reason why TCP timeout is not kicking in.
What we want to achieve here is to remove idle connection which doesn't transmit or send data for a period of time. Is there other timeouts we can utilize like SSL timeout or any settings in SSL or other profiles that can remove or check the existing connection if it's still in use or not?
Or maybe do know some iRule to use in this kind of situation.
