I am facing problem while accessing web site through load balancer but it work fine when i call website directly. After getting traces i found my client is retransmitting TCP packet with PSH+ACK four times and after that load balancer send TCP packet with RST flag. Before that my client send SYN and successfully got SYN+ACK. Please help me to find out whats wrong with it. Regards, imran asked 12 Sep '11, 04:53 imranrazakhan |
One Answer:
Did you make the trace on the client or server side of the loadbalancer? Usually a loadbalancer will terminate the TCP session of the client to look into the HTTP request, so that it can make a loadbalancing decision based on the content of the HTTP request (think of cookie persistency as an example why this is needed). Then I can think of two things that might be going wrong in your setup.
In loadbalanced scenarios, it is always best to make traces on the client-side as well as the server-side of the loadbalancer to be able to follow its behavior. answered 12 Sep '11, 07:34 SYN-bit ♦♦ |
