Hi Willy, I have kept F5 pressed for number of seconds. Then I checked the status page and saw which node was active in the traffic. The first one only had something in the rest had zeroes. I tried that from different browsers even different PCs and it has always gone to the first node on the list :/.
As soon as I fired up haproxy 1.5 with the same config keeping F5 pressed for number of second result in the load being spread across the backend as every single one had some bytes transferred in and out and also status page which tells which node you're connected to was displaying different results every time I refreshed the page so... it's not the connection open. Thank you.
