[Ammar]

Dear :

we have issue with cookie persistence not working if the server connect to inside LTM but if server connect to outside LTM cookie persistence working

client traffic From 1 to 10

Outside VS

Hi,

Could you show me the resource tab in the virtual server configuration? do you have cookie persistence configured? is a custom persistence profile?

configured with default Cookie

Hi,

Ok, so the next step is to create a new custom cookie profile for testing the different types of cookie persistence to fit them according to your application:

• HTTP Cookie Insert

  Using the HTTP Cookie Insert method, the information about the server to which the client connects is inserted in the HTTP header of the response from the server in the form of a cookie. By default, the cookie is named BIGipServer<pool_name> and includes the encoded address and port of the server handling the connection. The system sets the expiration date for the cookie based on the Expiration setting in the cookie persistence profile. HTTP Cookie Insert is the default value for the Cookie Method setting.

• HTTP Cookie Passive

  Using the HTTP Cookie Passive method is unlike the other cookie persistence methods. The BIG-IP system does not insert or search for blank Set-Cookie headers in the response from the server. This method does not try to set up the cookie. With this method, the server provides the cookie, formatted with the correct server information and timeout.

• HTTP Cookie Rewrite

  Using the HTTP Cookie Rewrite method, the BIG-IP system intercepts a Set-Cookie header, named BIGipCookie, sent from the server to the client, and overwrites the name and value of the cookie. The new cookie is named BIGipServer<pool_name> and it includes the address and port of the server handling the connection.

In the link below you can find the way to create the cookie persistence:

Dear 

i try but not working

Hi,

I recommend you open a support case, if the behavior doesn´t change it could be a bug.

on outside BIGIP, do not confiugure any persistence as pool member for it would be always the inside BIGIP VS. Configure cookie persistence with oneconnect profile (/32 mask) only in inside BIGIP.  Test and let us know
