Specifying Connection Properties at the Pool Level

In Avi Load Balancer, four properties are configured at a more granular level (pool level).

The properties are:

1. upstream_connpool_conn_max_reuse: Maximum times a connection to a server in the pool can be reused. Default value is 0 (which implies the connection may be used an unlimited number of times).

2. upstream_connpool_server_max_cache: Maximum cached connections per server in the pool. Default value is 0 (which implies unlimited cached connections).

3. upstream_connpool_conn_idle_tmo: Connection idle timeout, measured in seconds. Default value is 60.

4. upstream_connpool_conn_life_tmo: Connection life timeout, measured in seconds. Default value is 600.

These four parameters are currently accessible through the REST API and Avi Load Balancer CLI. It is not required to restart the SE for the changes to take effect. The above settings are only applicable for a L7/ SSL VS.
