Cisco Loadbalancer 11506 series question


Cisco Loadbalancer, Load balancing, Network infrastructure

I've got a mind boggling question about Cisco Loadbalancer 11506 series. Here is a sample config;
-----------------------------------------
service WPST01
ip address 192.168.120.61
keepalive type HTTP
string WPST01
active

service WPST02
ip address 192.168.120.63
keepalive type HTTP
string WPST02
active

service WPST03
ip address 192.168.120.65
keepalive type HTTP
string WPST03
active

!*************************** OWNER *************************** owner XXX

content PORTAL
protocol tcp
port 80
add service WPST01
add service WPST02
add service WPST03
vip address 192.168.120.50
advanced-balance
arrowpoint-cookie
active
----------------------------------------
Please tell me exactly, what would happen if the config was now changed to; service WPST01
ip address 192.168.120.61
keepalive type HTTP
string WPST02
active

service WPST02
ip address 192.168.120.63
keepalive type HTTP
string WPST02
active

service WPST03
ip address 192.168.120.65
keepalive type HTTP
string WPST03
active

!*************************** OWNER ***************************
owner XXX

content PORTAL
protocol tcp
port 80
add service WPST01
add service WPST02
add service WPST03
vip address 192.168.120.50
advanced-balance arrowpoint-cookie
active
-----------------------------------------
Notice that the strings for the first two services refer to the same cookie. I'd like to know the information flow, the requests made, by whom and how, etc.
