tcp Multipath or One-connect profile

Hi Everyone!

 

this is our set-up: 2 servers behind LB will communicate to a single server with 1 port open. This single server will just accommodate 1 IP address per session. It is expected that the 2 servers behind LB can simultaneously communicate to 1 server. During the UAT testing, we do a telnet test where we get a successful result using multipath. On the actual implementation where live data has been transmitted, 2 servers cannot simultaneously connect but rather communicate 1 at a time, forcing the other adjacent server to disconnect.

 

will enabling the one-connect profile can address this? hoping for an answer the soonest.

 

thank you!

  • Can you explore SNAT ? May be create another VS and the 2 pool members can communicate to this VS which then SNATs traffic to the single server ?!? OneConnect may solve problem with a 0.0.0.0 netmask. I would recommend testing it out.
