Priority Group Activation - Load Balancing Method

Hello,

 

Regarding the use of Priority Group Activation, is there a requirement to use Round Robin when this is enabled? I have cases where I have this setting enabled to provide an active/standby environment using Least Connections and connections will slowly 'leak' to the standby server in the activation group. Has anyone else experienced this?

 

I wasn't able to find if this setting has a requirement to use Round Robin specifically.

 

Thanks.

    I have experienced similar issue even using Round Robin but for the VIP that process udp traffic. Not sure why it's doing so. May be open a case with F5 support.

    Hi, This not compulsory to keep the load balancing method as Round robin, could you please check if the monitor went down for the active member by any chance so if at any time active member will go down or its monitor will not respond F5 will send the connection to the 2nd priority member
