is table record for client existing on the first session? can you check what table lookup returns on the first session?
Eldad_162351the table record exists and the variables are ok when i print them at CLIENT_ACCEPTED. where would you place the node $destip $destport?- nitassi do not use node command because all traffic will be sent to pool (web proxy pool) that is assigned to virtual server. does it work if you send all traffic to web proxy pool (i.e. not looking up web proxy node from table)?
- Eldad_162351yes it works fine. in this case i cannot use the pool because the table records keep updating all the time by an sideband call to different i rule from a different virtual server. so actually the nodes are dynamic and changing from time to time...
- nitassif virtual server's pool works, node command should work too. can you try to move TCP::collect 0 0 to be after node command (i.e. use node command before TCP::collect 0 0)?
