Hi,just reusing your post:

 

To my understanding from here I think you need to do this to have enabled web acceleration module (WAM) for your traffic:

 

  1. create standard LTM config - VIP, pool, assign http profile, snat if need
  2. create custom web acceleration profile (basically http cache profile)
  3. create new WAM application and assign it to web acceleration profile created in previous step
  4. assign web acceleration profile to the VIP

Can anybody agree this is the correct way to configure WAM for http services? Why then in HTTP classes is switch named "WebAccelerator" with options accelerated/bypass?

 

Do I need to use this HTTP class, or is it just another way how to use WAM for http traffic? Thanks, Zdenek
