| Configuring the WSM using Device Manager |
If a client browser is not configured to accept cookies, you must use the hash load-balancing metric to maintain session persistence. With cookie-based persistence enabled, session persistence for browsers that do not accept cookies will be based on the source IP address. However, individual client requests coming from a proxy firewall will appear to be coming from the same source IP address. Therefore, the requests will be directed to a single server, resulting in traffic being concentrated on a single real server instead of load-balanced across all available real servers.
