4. Click the SSL button.
5. In the Timeout box, type the number of seconds that the BIG-IP
should store SSL session IDs before removing them from the
system.
6. Click the Apply button.
To activate SSL persistence from the command line
Use the following syntax to activate SSL persistence from the command
line:
b pool <pool_name> modify { persist_mode ssl ssl_timeout <timeout> }
For example, if you want to set SSL persistence on the pool my_pool, type
the following command:
b pool my_pool modify { persist_mode ssl ssl_timeout 3600 }
To display persistence information for a pool
To show the persistence configuration for the pool:
b pool <pool_name> persist show
To display all persistence information for the pool named my_pool, use the
show option:
b pool my_pool persist show
SIP Call-ID persistence
Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is an application-layer protocol that
manages sessions consisting of multiple participants, thus enabling real-time
messaging, voice, data, and video. With SIP, applications can communicate
with one another by exchanging messages through TCP or UDP. Examples
of such applications are internet conferencing and telephony, or multimedia
distribution.
SIP Call-ID persistence is a new type of persistence available for server
pools. You can configure Call-ID persistence for proxy servers that receive
Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) messages sent through UDP.
Note
BIG-IP currently supports persistence for SIP messages sent through UDP
only.
When activating SIP Call-ID persistence for a server pool, you can specify
the following:
◆ The name of the server pool (required)
◆ A timeout value for persistence records (optional)
This timeout value allows the BIG-IP to free up resources associated
with old SIP persistence entries, without having to test each inbound
