Session Persistence

We have a small web app that we are implementing F5 on. Within this application, we have pages that are served as secure and unsecure (ports 80 and 443 respectively). So we have two servers that we're running our testing on Server 1 and Server 2. If a user accesses the site on server 1 unsecured, and then we fail over Server 2 they're session data is not persisted. From what I can tell in the documentation, this is something that should be possible within Big IP correct?

    It sounds like the application keeps track of sessions on the server, without a mechanism to support switching servers. It will depend on the application whether this is an option.
