Creating Profiles / available methods list on iControl?

Posted By Richard Milner-Watts on 08/15/2012 06:16 AM

 

Anyone have any thoughts on why the following isn't working? No errors are thrown, yet it doesn't change the value for insert_xforwarded_for_header_mode.

 

 

  $ProfileMode = New-Object -TypeName iControl.LocalLBProfileProfileMode;
  $ProfileMode.value = "PROFILE_MODE_ENABLED";
  $ProfileMode.default_flag = "False";
  $ProfileModes = (, $ProfileMode);

(Get-F5.iControl).LocalLBProfileHttp.set_insert_xforwarded_for_header_mode( "test_http_profile", $ProfileModes )
(Get-F5.iControl).LocalLBProfileHttp.get_insert_xforwarded_for_header_mode( "test_http_profile" ) 

 

 

 

 

 

 

EDIT: I fixed it myself, spend two hours playing with this and then find a solution 2 minutes after I post... typical.

 

 

 

If I don't set default_flag to anything (true or false) then the code works. It's not obvious from the documentation but I'm guessing this is a system flag that I'm not meant to set myself, i.e. I can use it too tell whether the value is inherited but not to control inheritence??

 

 

 

<< A little confused

 

 

Try setting the value of default_flag to the native true/false values in Powershell ($True, or $False). Or you could set it to 1 for true, or 0 for false. default_flag is of type "boolean" so I'm actually surprised it let you assign it a string.
