The client has been logged out when one node member on the pool down

Question

I have two SRV running service standalone (Ex: Webmin), I have configured load balance on F5. When I stopped service on one node, the client has been logged out.
I want to ask how to configure F5 for when a pool member has been down, I want the other node member on the pool to continue to respond to the client and it should be transparent to the client and the client should not be logged out.&nbsp;
Thank you.&nbsp;

Is the Webmin client login local or via LDAP/Radius?&nbsp;
Local=Configured only on 1 Webmin box and not shared to a second webmin box.
LDAP/Radius=Talks to a server for authentication&nbsp;

This is an application issue not directly F5. You app servers, Webmin in this case, needs to share authentication state between them or use a single sign-on SSO solution. Alternative is to off load authentication to the F5 but recommend to use APM for that of you have it available.

I use login locally. Could I resolve the issue with LDAP/Radius?&nbsp;

shaun_simmons1 · Answer

Yes, which is what AMG is referring to with his response.   Do you have a license for APM?&nbsp;

I don't have APM license, I will try to use LDAP/Radius.&nbsp;
Thank you.&nbsp;
