Does failover between LoadMasters still work?
SSL sessions work in a stateless mode. This means that the connection from the client to the server is a series of small conversations that are unrelated. LoadMaster does provide persistence, which is critical in e-commerce transaction oriented applications. In the unlikely even that the active LoadMaster fails, the SSL sessions will need to be restarted by the browser. This is actually a security function of SSL. Due to the stateless nature of the Internet, SSL sessions left open could create holes in your security.
