I have 2 servers being loadbalanced.
Basic config.
service telnet1
ip address 192.168.1.1
port 23
protocol tcp
active
service telnet2
ip address 192.168.1.2
port 23
protocol tcp
active
owner telnetservers
content telnet
add service telnet1
add service telnet2
vip address 10.1.1.1
protocol tcp
port 23
active
The weird problem is as follows:
Client A connects to VIP:
CSS balances to telnet1
Client A logs on
Client B connects to VIP
CSS balances to telnet2
Client B logs on
Client A initiates 2nd telnet to VIP
CSS balances to telnet1
Client A logs on
Client B initiates 2nd telnet to VIP
CSS balances to telnet2
Client B logs on
Now when more connections are initiated.
Client A initiates 3rd telnet to VIP
CSS balances to telnet1
Client A logs on
Client B initiates 3rd telnet to VIP
CSS balances to telnet1 again
Client B logs on
Even though sessions are still active the round robin starts failing.
After more connections, telnet2 gets hit twice before balancing to telnet1
I was under the impression that round robin worked as follows:
Server: Telnet1
Connection: 1 3 5 7 9
Server: Telnet2
Connection: 2 4 6 8 10
The CSS seems to do the following:
Server: Telnet1
Connection: 1 3 5 6 8
Server: Telnet2
Connection: 2 4 7 9 10
Any idea why this is happening?
