Avi supports HTTP-to-HTTPS redirection at the HTTP/application layer. This can be done using the secure HTTP application profile for common redirect behavior, an HTTP Request Policy for conditional redirect logic, or a DataScript for highly customized redirect handling. Broadcom documentation describes DataScripts as being able to perform redirection and header manipulation, while HTTP Policy Sets are used to define Layer 7 HTTP and HTTPS behavior. A Network Security Policy operates at a lower network-security layer and is used for actions such as accepting, denying, discarding, or rate-limiting connections. It does not operate as an HTTP redirect mechanism because it does not generate HTTP-layer 301 or 302 responses. Therefore, Network Security Policy cannot be used for HTTP-to-HTTPS redirection.

Avi HTTP compression behavior is influenced by network latency and compression policy settings. Broadcom's Avi documentation explains that when round-trip time is less than 10 ms, no compression is applied; when RTT is between 10 ms and 200 ms, normal compression is used; and when RTT is above 200 ms, aggressive compression may be used. This is especially relevant in a lab environment, where client-to-Service-Engine latency is often extremely low. In that situation, compression can be correctly enabled, but Avi may choose not to compress responses because the RTT is below the threshold where compression is considered beneficial. Therefore, the most likely reason initial tests do not show compression is that the default behavior excludes traffic with RTT below 10 ms.

Avi supports several persistence methods, and some require persistence tables stored in Service Engine memory. Client IP persistence uses a persistence table that maps client addresses to selected backend servers, which consumes Service Engine memory. TLS persistence also relies on state associated with TLS session behavior. App Cookie Persistence depends on application cookies and persistence handling that Avi must interpret or track. HTTP Cookie Persistence, however, is different because Avi can insert or use a cookie value that identifies the selected server, allowing the client to carry the persistence information in subsequent requests. This avoids maintaining the same kind of server-side persistence table in Service Engine memory. Therefore, the persistence type that does not consume Service Engine memory is HTTP Cookie Persistence.

When troubleshooting a busy Virtual Service, capturing all client logs can create unnecessary logging overhead and produce excessive data. Avi Load Balancer supports client log filters so administrators can selectively capture logs for traffic matching specific conditions, such as a particular client IP address. VMware Avi documentation describes creating user-defined filters for Virtual Service client logs, which allows operators to focus logging on targeted test traffic rather than enabling broad logging for all users. Modifying Apdex criteria changes performance scoring expectations, not logging overhead. Client Insights mode and analytics settings may affect visibility, but they do not provide the same targeted reduction in log volume. Therefore, the best method to minimize performance impact while troubleshooting a busy Virtual Service is to enable a client log filter for only the test user's IP addresses.

Avi Load Balancer does not continuously forward and index every client transaction log by default. Broadcom documentation states that both significant and non-significant logs are not automatically forwarded by Service Engines to the Controller cluster for indexing by default. A newly created or newly enabled Virtual Service may show more log activity initially, but after the initial period, ordinary successful transactions are not shown unless non-significant logging or a user-defined client log filter is enabled. Significant logs, such as errors or policy-related events, continue to appear because they are operationally important. Therefore, if the Logs tab suddenly shows dramatically fewer entries after the first 30 minutes, the likely reason is that non-significant logs are not enabled.
