Server Session Timeout

Dears, I migrated from Cisco ACE to F5 LTM, everything works fine with me. Except 2 ERP system installed on unix servers, these servers does not have any VS, but they are from the same Subnet I migrated from ACE. The timeout session was configured on "timeout inactivity 0" On the ACE, these servers need an open session when we move them to LTM they start getting session drop every 3 minutes, we created a VS and Pool for each of them and configured a persistence for them based on distinction and we make the timeout as inactivity after that session start dropping every 15 minutes.

 

How can we create the same things were created in ACE in F5 LTM.

 

below is the the ACE configuration for these servers.

 

access-list testnew line 8 extended permit ip any host 10.5.4.4 access-list testnew line 16 extended permit ip any host 10.5.4.14

 

parameter-map type connection test set timeout inactivity 0

 

class-map match-all testclass 2 match access-list testnew

 

policy-map multi-match client-vips class testclass connection advanced-options test

 

interface vlan 54 description "Client-Side VLAN" ip address 10.0.54.3 255.255.255.0 service-policy input client-vips

    Can you create a custom TCP profile and set the timeout to "indefinite". Use this profile on the server side protocol setting in the virtual properties.
