What does the JSESSIONID cookie do?

JSESSIONID stores user state for multiple HTTP requests as part of Java EE's session management system. The JSESSIONID cookie stores a unique, randomly generated identifier for each user's current session. The JSESSIONID cookie is a standard session management cookie generated by Servlet containers. It's sent from the web server to the client and then back to the server in subsequent HTTP requests.
