— Disable DAM and specify proxy IP addresses on the client ports.
>> # /cfg/slb/adv/direct disable
>> # /cfg/slb/port 1
>> # pip 200.200.200.68
3. Server processing is not required if using proxy IP addresses, so optionally you can disable it.
>> # /cfg/slb/port 1
>> # server dis
4. Select the appropriate load-balancing metric for the real server group.
>> # /cfg/slb/group 2/metric hash
— If embedding an IP address in the cookie, select roundrobin or leastconns as the metric.
— If you are not embedding the IP address in the cookie, select hash as the metric in
conjunction with a cookie assignment server.
While you may experience traffic concentration using the hash metric with a cookie
assignment server, using a hash metric without a cookie assignment server causes traffic
concentration on your real servers.
5. Enable cookie-based persistence on the virtual server service.
In this example, cookie-based persistence is enabled for service 80 (HTTP).
>> # /cfg/slb/virt 1/service 80/pbind
Current persistent binding mode: disabled
Enter clientip|cookie|sslid|disable persistence mode: cookie
After you specify

parameters:
>> Enter insert|passive|rewrite cookie persistence mode [i/p/r]: p
Enter cookie name: CookieSession1
Enter starting point of cookie value [1-64]: 1
Enter number of bytes to extract [1-64]: 8
Look for cookie in URI [e|d]: d
— Cookie-based persistence mode:
— Cookie name
— Starting point of the cookie value
— Number of bytes to be extracted
— Look for cookie in the URI [e | d]
If you want to look for a cookie name/value pair in the URI, enter e to enable this option. To
look for the cookie in the HTTP header, enter d to disable this option.
