Unable to see entry in persistence table for mac address extracted from DHCP option 61

Hi Guys

I'm having an issue with Load balancing Radius authentication and accounting along with DHCP profiling to the same pool member for a specific client. I've followed the Cisco deployment guide http://www.cisco.com/c/dam/en/us/td/docs/security/ise/how_to/HowTo-95-Cisco_and_F5_Deployment_Guide-ISE_Load_Balancing_Using_BIG-IP.pdf

I have 3 VIPs configured x:1812 x:1813 x:67

For radius persistence, I'm using the following irule in the persist for 1812 and 1813

Now for the DHCP persistence

https://shrib.com/9P6jWaaLUw1tRY8

However, running the debug it does not look like any persistence entry is created.

Reading the actual TCL script created by Shun Takahashi

All the option and value is stored into following session table.

table set -subtable

But since I am using

persist uie $mac_up $persist_ttl

Why do I not see the entry created in the persistence table, or moreover, with the Radius authentication and accounting already persisting the mac address of the client, using the DHCP profiling Irule, I don't see the client using the same pool member as the radius and accounting used.

Could someone please advise on this?

Thanks very much for your help.

Regards

DF
