force load balance back after failover

$

Hello everybody!

 

Currently I have fw 1.8.0 in one of our ERPoe-5 with failover load balance configured. The main line goes off once a day for an hour o so but apart from that is very stable. the failover line is almost always available but has drops of 3-5 seconds almost once per 2 - 3 minutes.

 

I want to make the router close the connection of the failover line to go back to the main one once it is available. When the router had 1.7.0 fw it had no problem with this. But since I updated I have repeatedly noticed this happening. I don't have any sticky configuration in place in this, or any load balance rule.

 

A reason for this behavior could be that the clients having this problem are in constant communication with an internet server, every 8-16s they send and receive packages and it is critical that those packages get to and back from the server.

 

Only after restarting the router the clients re-establish the communication by the main line, I have checked the LB watchdog and the state of the main line is active with 100% load. Even "new" clients are routed to the main line, but those who had established connections in the failover line don't go back because of the constant packet flow.

 

I guess I'm asking for something like an anti sticky heheh, any help would be really appretiated

 

Thanks!
