Limited ports RMI through BIGIP LTM

Hello All,

 

I am trying to figure out possible setup of implementing load balancing/failover for RMI traffic through BIGIP. I went through posts related to RMI on devcentral however, couldnt get specific direction. We have some applications where we have limited the RMI to use only couple of ports apart from stub/registry port. LTM shall load balance any initial stub request which establishes session and then subsequent traffic for that session shall be flowing to selected node only. Is this possible with LTM. I am not getting complete picture of how i can achieve this. If someone can please explain, or if there is some good case study/poc done by someone, and you can point me to it, it would be really helpful. Atleast suggest me some possible approach. Please help.

  • I'm not hot on RMI but it should be easy to restrict any VS to specific ports and I'd assume persistence can be used to ensure all connections within a session get to the same Pool Member/Node.
