ASP.NET_SessionId |
ASP.Net_SessionId is a Microsoft cookie which is used to identify the users session on the server. The session is an area on the server which can be used to store data in between HTTP requests. ASP.NET_SessionId is created by the webserver when the session starts so in the next requests, the Request Header has that ASP.NET_SessionId and it is the same as the Response Header. This ASP.NET_SessionId will be used to identify the specific user session and ensures that this request is from the same client that created the previous request. |

AWSALB |
AWS Application Load Balancer Cookie: This cookie is used to introduce stickiness across the session. Used to map the session to the instance. When the load balancer (the server) first receives a request from a client, it routes the request to a target, generating this encrypted cookie that encodes information about the selected target, and includes it in the response to the client. Also, it registers which server cluster is serving the visitor, and this is used in context with load balancing to optimize the user experience. |

AWSALBCORS |
AWS Application Load Balancer Cookie: This cookie is managed by AWS and is used for load balancing as well. With cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) requests, some browsers require SameSite=None; Secure to enable stickiness. In this case, the load balancer generates a second stickiness cookie, AWSALBCORS, which includes the same information as the original stickiness cookie, AWSALB, plus the SameSite attribute. Clients receive both cookies. |
Strictly necessary |

AWSELB |
AWS Classic Elastic Load Balancer Cookie: This AWS cookie is used to map the session to the instance and enables "sticky sessions". AWSELB is assigned if your application manages its own session. The lifetime of the special Elastic Load Balancing cookie, AWSELB, follows the lifetime of the application-generated cookie specified in the policy configuration. The AWS load balancer only inserts this new stickiness cookie when the application response includes a new application cookie. |

AWSELBCORS |
AWS Application Load Balancer Cookie: This load-balancing cookie is managed by AWS and is for sticky sessions associated with cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) requests. With CORS requests, some browsers require SameSite=None; Secure to enable stickiness. In this case, the elastic load balancer generates a second stickiness cookie, AWSELBCORS, which includes the same information as the original stickiness cookie, AWSELB, plus the SameSite attribute. Clients receive both cookies in response. |

AWSALBTG |
AWS Application Load Balancer Cookie: The ASWALBTG cookie is a load balancer-generated cookie for Weighted Target Groups. It is used to honor sticky sessions and enable target group stickiness. When the load balancer first routes a request to a weighted target group, it generates an encrypted cookie named AWSALBTG that encodes information about the selected target group and includes the cookie in the response to the client. When the load balancer receives a request from the same client that matches a rule with target group stickiness enabled and contains the cookie, the request is routed to the target group specified in the cookie. |

AWSALBTGCORS |
AWS Application Load Balancer Cookie: This load-balancing cookie is managed by AWS and is for Weighted Target Groups associated with cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) requests. With CORS requests, some browsers require SameSite=None; Secure to enable stickiness. In this case, the elastic load balancer generates a second stickiness cookie, AWSALBCORS, which includes the same information as the original stickiness cookie, AWSALBTG, plus the SameSite attribute. Clients receive both cookies in response. |
