Can I get the target of a proxy?

If I have created a proxy with ITCMLocalLB.Proxy.create, how can   I later on find which was the actual target defined?

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.
