Hi TK,

 

Unfortunately this is not going to be an easy answer.

 

 

In regards of bandwidth. The LTM doesn't really have a good way to track bandwidth to each URL based on a single VIP. I ran into this scenario back when I was running v4.x and into v9.x. My solution was to utilize the Cisco NAM 2 module which works on a Cisco 6509 and other routers. It can graph traffic to multiple websites hosted on a single vip via the host headers. It can also send reports in CSV and PDF via schedule or FTP. Unfortunatly it doesn't track connections.

 

 

For connections tracking there are several irules within Devcentral that talk about creating a specific to track connections so search for it.

 

 

I hope this helps
