Can you discover the pool name if provided the node address?

You're right about that, citizen_elah. Here's a quote from Unruley on the subject from a previous post:

Also, there is a subtle difference between "use node a.b.c.d" and "use pool xxx member a.b.c.d". The former does not track the pool and as such persistence will not be tracked and pool statistics are not updated. Since the latter specifies the pool, these features can be performed. Also, when using "use node" there is no security that you actually picked a member in the pool (you could pick anything). Using the "use pool xxx member" command requires the member to exist in the pool and hence has some security in it.

 

 

 

 

Unfortunately, I don't know of a way to track back to the pool a member might be from. This would be quite a trick to implement, since a member can be in multiple pools. I'd recommend using a class perhaps, possibly keying off some other information being passed in the request.
