Been playing with this, but can't figure it out...

 

 

How do I write an irule so that we can extract the webmail URL/IP from the packet that hits the proxy_vip and then redirect this to the webmail_vip/pool whilst maintaining the src ip as that of the school's IP???

 

 

Original request:

 

src ip (school) -> dest ip (proxy_vip)

 

 

Desired request:

 

src ip (school) -> dest_ip (webmail_vip)

 

 

The proxy_vip is a Performance L4 VIP, so I can't use any of the HTTP_REQUEST and HTTP::redirect irule statements - is there another way to do what i want to accomplish?

 

 

Thanks.
