Session timeout

Hi,

 

 

I would like to know what happens when a session reaches timeout. Is client's connection is closed or session is just deleted from LB and persistance is then impossible?

 

 

Thank you

    Hello,

     

     

    Are you asking about the TCP idle timeout or a persistence record timeout? For a TCP idle timeout, LTM will close the TCP connection. For a persistence record timeout, the client will be re-load-balanced when they make a new request.
