CSS 'Persistent' Clarification

[seilsz]

Two questions:

1. When a client establishes a persistent HTTP connection that matches a CSS content rule, will the CSS map all requests over that connection to the same service within the content rule?

2. When a EQL is applied to a Layer 5 content rule, does just the first request get evaluated against the EQL? If so, do all additional requests over the same connection *not* match the content rule?

Thanks,

Zach

REgarding your current questions,

1/ he default is to be persistent and send all requests to the same server - you can do a 'no persistent' to loadbalance every request.

2/ every request should be evaluated.

Regards,

Gilles.
