How would you select what pool to direct it to? I suppose if you have a list of the resolved IP -> pool mapping stored somewhere within the iRule (a Data Group most likely) you could do a lookup with RESOLV::lookup to find the IP of the host, then check that IP against the Data Group and determine which pool to send it to based on that.

 

 

I.E. If the IP is 10.10.10.1-6 go to poola, if 192.168.7.5-17 poolb, etc.

 

 

Does that sound like what you're looking for?
