Hi Eslam,

 

 

Your rule should work find to log the VIP IP:port on each new connection. Nitass gave a few more examples for different iRule log options. I'd recommend using High Speed Logging to send the logs to a remote syslog pool instead of logging each connection to the local disk. Doing the latter will eat up a lot of CPU cycles and disk I/O.
