You can check the /var/log/ltm log file for TCL errors generated from your iRule. It's also viewable in the GUI under system >> logs >> local traffic.

You can use the IP::addr command (Click here) to compare IP addresses.

Here's an example:


if {[IP::addr [IP::client_addr]/24 equals 192.168.10.0] \

   COMPRESS::enable
} else {
   log local0. "didn't match for [IP::client_addr]"
   COMPRESS::disable
}
