pool foo
profiles {
http { }
tcp { }
}
rules {
rule1

type automap
}
vs-index 3
}
root@(ve11a)(cfg-sync In Sync)(Active)(/Common)(tmos) list ltm rule rule1
ltm rule rule1 {
when HTTP_REQUEST priority 1 {
HTTP::redirect "http://www.google.com"
}
}
root@(ve11a)(cfg-sync In Sync)(Active)(/Common)(tmos) list ltm rule rule2
ltm rule rule2 {
when HTTP_REQUEST priority 2 {
HTTP::header insert test 1234

Noctilucentwhat i want to show is the error is caused by conflicting in action (not the command itself). it is just an example because i do not know what you are doing in your another irule.
