Hi Aaron,
As per my understanding crc32 [IP::server_addr] will always give same value for a given string/ip.
What if you need to timeout the session after idle timeout of 10 min?
You have 2 members in a pool and 6 users.
Asume that crc32 value for membes is as follows
member 1 value is 3079cfbf
member 2 value is 1b549c7c
user -> member
1 -> 1
2 -> 2
3 -> 1
4 -> 2
5 -> 1
6 -> 2
As per above users 1, 3 and 5 will go to member 1 and users 2, 4 and 6 will go to member 2. With respect to this, user 1, 2 and 3 will get their cookie value as 3079cfbf and user 2, 4 and 6 will get 1b549c7c.
As of start all the usres are accessing the site, after a while user 1 having session id as 3079cfbf stops accessing but leaves the browser open. mean while user 3 and 5 having session id as 3079cfbf keep accessing the site. After 15 min user 1 retruns back. In this case having the browser open the session remains same so it will not timeout.
How to handle such a situation?
