Flow forwarding does not work with statemirror.verify enabled and source-port is preserve strict. Depending on the number of tmms and the IP addresses/ports on the network, this causes return traffic to get dropped. Traffic captures show packets leaving the BIG-IP system on one tmm and being returned on another. The return traffic that encounters the second tmm is dropped.
Server-side return traffic to the BIG-IP is dropped. This causes connection timeouts and resets.
-- Mirroring is enabled. -- High availability (HA) peer is connected. -- The source-port setting is preserve-strict. -- The statemirror.verify option is enabled. -- There is more than one tmm.
-- Disable statemirror.verify, disable source-port preserve-strict, disable mirroring. -- On BIG-IP Virtual Edition (VE), add the following to tmm_init.tcl on both units and restart tmm: ndal ignore_hw_dag yes
