Hi Juergen_Mang , the differences between this and HSSR is that this has less HTTP functionality, but is simpler to use and covers other UDP and TCP protocols. For instance, you can use it to perform a DNS query, interact via Telnet, FTP or suchlike. It assues that you will build the required functionality yourself, or assign F5 Professional Services to do so. For example, HSSR supports forms, tags, charsets, proxies, redirections, cookies, caching and many other HTTP-related features. Simple Sideband leaves you to do this by presenting the basic information - you manage cookies yourself based on the response headers.
