Active Connections

Hi all,

 

i noticed a "strange behaviour" of BigIP. If you look at the Active Connection Performance Graph attached you see that the number of active connections server is increasing every day. The problem is that after a month we need to restart the bigip because it doesn't manage new connections. I've been told the problem is due to my software release. Is it right?

 

The software release is "BIGIP 9.1.1 Build 54.6"

  • I would definitely recommend upgrading to at least 9.1.3, the latest maintenance release is 9.3.1 however.

  • I don't understand why the Active Connection Server are continuosly increasing. What does it mean? What's the difference between the Active Connections Server and Client?

     

    Thank You
  • I could see same behavior now as well, I am running on latest 15.x F5 IOS version. Could see high Active connection peak on non office hours, But no user Impact. Is that related to F5 behavior how to process with traffic.
