Can I get the target of a proxy?

 
 !/usr/bin/env python 
 from SOAPpy import SOAPProxy,structType 
  
 ns = 'urn:iControl:ITCMLocalLB/Proxy' 
 url = 'http://blah:blahblah@192.168.1.14/iControl/iControlPortal.cgi' 
  
 s = SOAPProxy(url,namespace=ns) 
 proxyList = [ structType(data={'address' : '192.168.1.121','port' : 443 })] 
  
 print s.get_proxy_target(proxies = proxyList) 
 print s.get_proxy_target_type(proxies = proxyList) 
 

=================== gives you =====================

: [: {'port': 80L, 'address': '192.168.1.121'}]

: [0] (0 == VIP and 1 == SERVER)

Hope this helps.

Thanks Brad!

As Brad mentioned there are a few new methods added as of 4.5-PTF08. Here are the function prototypes:

IPPortDefinition[] get_proxy_target( 
     in IPPortDefinition[] proxies 
 ); 
  
 enum ProxyTarget 
 { 
     PROXY_TARGET_VIP = 0, 
     PROXY_TARGET_SERVER = 1 
 }; 
  
 ProxyTarget[] get_proxy_target_type( 
     in IPPortDefinition[] proxies 
 );

You can verify that they exist by viewing the WSDL on your device

As a side note, I just kicked off the first build of the 4.6.2 release of the SDK which is scheduled to be released with BIG-IP v4.6.2. It will document and support all features added since 4.5. The release date is currently set for 7/29/04.
