Hi There, just a quick question,
We have recently bought 2 * Cisco ASA 5520 ... which we will be set up as an Active / Active Cluster, We have some web servers that require COOKIE BASED web load balancers . Does the ASA 5520 support such load balancing and is there a special setup required for this. if so what will be the CLI commands if required.
Many Thanks

No, ASA does not support that. ASA does not inspect into the cookie based information for web traffic, hence is not capable of performing such load balancing.

Asa do not have any PBR function, so you can match cookies information since it is contained in HTTP Header with regular expressions, but you can't make routing decision based on that, maybe you can with a router, but i'm not sure Layer 7 class-map/policies are suitable for PBR.
