Hello,
Is it possible to use LTM policy for load balancing as well? Since you already using the LTM policies for assigning the ASM plicies, so it would be better to use LTM poliy for load balancing as well to avoid any confusion.
Also, it is always better to avoid using irules if you will be able to do the same function with any other LTM objects (as ltm policy) because irules will have more processing than ltm policy.
As JRahm mentioned in the below link:
"Of course, iRules still provide greater flexibility, but as long as the needs are met in a policy, that should be the first choice."
Thanks,
