source_address persistance
Hi Hien_Truong ,
> F5 Persistence ( Source Address Affinity ) is based on users Source ips , F5 by default stores these IPs in which called " Persistence Record Table " this table and its records make F5 to take a load balance decision and choose which pool member should handle subsequant Requests per each user source address " Record ".
> user source address is classified into " users real ips or a Forward proxies ips " , F5 does not know if this a real user ips or requests are proxied by a proxy in external path , so you may find hundreds of Requests come from single ip address with short time due to a proxy on its external way.
So that F5 source address persistence is now a proper way for Persistence in case of existing a proxy in Requests way.
> Could you please clarify your set up or Scenario to get a clear vision.
