Hello,

 

First, you don't need an iRule to assign a pool to a virtual-server. You just need to assign your pool in the virtual-server config Ressource -> Default Pool.

 

To access you virtual-server:

 

  • Is the virtual-server UP? Green ball before its name.
  • Is the network 192.168.200.0/24 connected to your F5?
  • If not, do you have a route for 192.168.200.100 pointing to the F5's floating IP?
  • If the VIP is active on the same network as the two apache server, did you enable SNAT? (in virtual-server config)

Best regards,

 

Christophe
