Per Blade
A BIG-IP system creates one connection per blade to each peer. This
provides a balanced performance approach between the per peer connection mode (only one
connection) and a per tmm connection mode (a connection from each TMM). This mode only makes
sense for a hardware chassis with multiple blades.
Each blade will make a single connection to
each peer.
- Message arrives on Blade 0
- Blade 0 opens a connection to Server 1 and forwards the message
- Second message arrives
- Blade 1 opens a connection to server 1 and forwards the message
A connection will not be opened to Server 2 until a message targeted at that
server arrives.
