Add the following configuration to your JavaConfig:

``` java
@Bean
ServletContextInitializer servletContextInitializer() {
    // keep session only in cookie so that jsessionid is not appended to URL.
    return servletContext -> servletContext.setSessionTrackingModes(
            Collections.singleton(SessionTrackingMode.COOKIE));
}
```

This is equivalent to 

``` xml
<session-config>
    <tracking-mode>COOKIE</tracking-mode>
</session-config>
```

in `web.xml`
