Issue with SSH and RDP connections times out
Hi,
When we first installed our BIG-IP LTM we had issues that RDP sessions going through the LTM was disconnected, same thing with SSH session to the LTM CLI.
To solve this I created a custom L4 profile that set the expire to infinite. ....indeed not a good way to solve this since it's causing problems when a host changes the MAC on the NIC.
I guess this is a common issue with RDP/SSH to time out. How do I solve this according to best practice?
F5 Support suggests that I should put the time out to 8h and tweak it until I find a level that suits our environment.
I dont think this should be a issue at all and shouldnt need any major changes to my config. So how do everyone else solve this?
Thanks in advance
Robert
