ASM ICAP and Route Domains
Does anyone know if the 10.2.3 ASM ICAP client can use an ICAP server in a route domain. I suspect not as I have been unable to provide a a.b.c.d%routedomain_id form address (not a valid IP address)
I suspect the ICAP client is trying to use the Common Partition route domain (my ICAP server is in another partition) I also suspect the ICAP client can not use route domains in other partitions as I have not even seen an attempt to connect.
Has anyone done this before ?
Thanks
J

Hi Jason,
I don't think there is full support for route domains for ICAP servers. You could confirm this and/or open a request for enhancement with F5 Support.
In the meantime, are you able to put the ICAP server(s) in the default partition and route domain?

Hi Aaron,
I finally got a lab environment running with an ICAP server in common and route domain 0, with my virtual, HTTP Class and Policy in a second partition and route domain with strict isolation turned on in both. It works well.
Hopefully today I will have a new VLAN at my disposal to attempt this in my test environment (identical to the target environment) which I will configure in the common partition. I'll configure a virtual in common to load balance the two ICAP servers in this new VLAN and expect to see a much better result.
I have also opened a case but no response yet.
I'll let the community know the result of both the case and my configuration.
Thanks

Hmm, double post, apologies.

OK, so using the common partition and default route domain for the ICAP server worked a treat, HTTP classes and the relative Web Apps/Policies in other partitions/route domains with Virus Detection configured in the policy use the ICAP servers as promised.
I've created a VIP in common for redundant ICAP's also, so it does the job.

Hi Jason,
Thanks for confirming this worked.
