NimbostratusForwarding client IP with performance Layer 4
Is there a way to forward the client IP with a performance Layer 4 virtual server since there is no http profile? Can we insert a custom header populated with the client IP using an iRule for example? Thanks

A header would be an HTTP thing. Is it still HTTP traffic inside the perfL4 VIP? If not, then it depends largely on the protocol and what the server can accept. We can inject information into the TCP headers and payload, but the app needs to be able to use it.
