Clone traffic sent on port 0, need actual port

I tried the clone pool feature within the VIP settings but there's no traffic being sent to the clone server (not layer 2 adjacent). The iRule below works but the traffic is sent to the clone pool on...

The problem is that your HSL pool (mooglamacc-clone-0-pl) does not have a port specified - you need to set the port there.

    S, yes it does work if I specify a port for the HSL pool but then I’d have to create 13 vips, 13 irules and 13 HSL pools, one for each port. Was hoping to avoid this.

      You can't - on an HSL pool, the pool port specifies the port used to send the logging traffic.

       

      It's a different mechanism to a wildcard pool where the port is passed through to the pool member.

       

      You can still use a single VIP and irule, but you will need 13 HSL pools and some decision logic or a datagroup lookup.

       

      Or don't use a HSL pool and use a sideband connection
