Configure session tracking

Review the Session tracking options to plan your approach to session management. To configure session tracking, complete the following:

  1. Go to the appropriate level of Session Management.

  2. Specify the session tracking mechanism to pass the session ID between the browser and the servlet:

    • To track sessions with cookies, click Enable Cookies.

      To change the cookie settings, click Modify.

    • To track sessions with URL rewriting, click Enable URL Rewriting.

      To enable protocol switch rewriting, click Enable protocol switch rewriting.

    • To track sessions with SSL information, click Enable SSL ID tracking.

      Deprecated feature: Session tracking using the SSL ID is deprecated in WebSphere Application Server version 7.0. We can reconfigure session tracking to use cookies or modify the application to use URL rewriting.

  3. Click Apply.

  4. Click Save.
