Session deleted due to admin initiated termination on APM 13.1.0.2

I have a number of users connecting to our VPN, and when we moved them from 12.1.2-HF2 to 13.1.0.2 last night, they started getting disconnected every 1-2 minutes. It doesn't just try to reconnect, ...

    I found the answer thanks to F5 Support. The information about it can be found here: https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K03837405. Basically the session.user.last.logonname variable wasn't set, but I did have the Max sessions per user set to 20. This converted the session limit from a per user to a global limit.

     

    Bad news bears.

     

    I have set the session.user.last.logonname to match the session.user.last.username and it seems to have fixed the issue!
