F5 and WebLogic
Can someone tell me what the difference is between the following two ?
*** Setup 1
F5 VIP -> Apache Web Servers (say two in a pool) -> WebLogic Servers (say 10)
The F5 VIP does not have any persistence profile setup
*** Setup 2
F5 VIP -> Apache Web Servers (say two in a pool) -> WebLogic Servers (say 10)
The F5 VIP is setup with a cookie level persistence
*** In both of the above, the Apache Web Servers talk directly to the WebLogic Servers ; in other words there is no f5 between them.
Now, I know that both of the above work but I cannot seem to understand the subtle difference between the two setups. And why I would choose one over the other ?
