I have a Magento v2.2.6 webshop running and I want Varnish on that. Now I installed Varnish and it seems to be active. But I have a (big) problem.
How Varnish should work is that it caches pages as soon as one person loads the page/files. The problem I have right now is that the pages are cached again for each person. (the pages are unique to each person/connection)
So if I load the home page twice on the same device the page is cached. But if I go to the home page on my phone the page needs to be cached again.
I'm pretty sure that this has something to do with the cookies of the webshop. Since Magento 2 saves everything in one big cookie. Also the request headers are:
cache-control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, max-age=0
And I don't think it should be like that..
To give you guys a beter idea, here is the varnish.vcl I'm using right now. It's the default one for Magento 2 except that it always shows a HIT or MISS. (The .host is different but I'm not going post that IP here)
vcl 4.0;
import std;

# For SSL offloading, pass the following header in your proxy server or load balancer: 'X-Forwarded-Proto: https'

.host = "localhost";
.port = "8080";
.first_byte_timeout = 600s;
.probe = {
.url = "/pub/health_check.php";

.interval = 5s;
.window = 10;
.threshold = 5;
}

We've tried almost everything and this should be working but isn't.
Do you guys know anything that can help?
