Feb 01, 2008I think it is a valid suggestion based on this post from Unruley which Deb referenced in her OneConnect tech tip:
http://devcentral.f5.com/Default.aspx?tabid=53&view=topic&forumid=5&postid=10032
...the BIG-IP parses all requests as long as the HTTP profile is on the virtual (and not disabled). However, the serverside connection is maintained unless either OneConnect is enabled or a new pool is picked.
So without OneConnect, LTM won't make a new load balancing decision after the first HTTP request when subsequent HTTP requests are made on the same TCP connection if the request will be sent to the same pool. How's that for a mouthful?
Are you able to test with OneConnect?
