iRule - HTTP Response (Trigger)?
Currently we have Cookie (HASH) Persistence enabled on all our websites, and persistence between services is being kept correctly.
Our dilemma is how the F5 handles the cookies, this may or may not be possible, but we’ve noticed that the F5 reads the cookie on the “Request” or after you have landed on the site and clicked on a link.
We need to have the cookie read on the “Response” or when the client initially lands on the page.
The reason for this request is that we are doing an email campaign, and with in this email, there is a URL that the customer will click on. This URL contains and embedded serial number that is passed to the web server.
URL Example: http://www.ecommsite1.com/pagebuilder/Item?item=48064&source=940948
Our issue is that when they land on the page, the serial number is passed correctly to (server1) the web server, but when the customer clicks on any link, they are redirected to another web server (server2) and that server has no clue about the serial number that was entered. Persistence is not working as expected.
Please let me know if you need more information.
Thanks in advance for your help!
