    I believe the following should work for you and you shouldn't need X-Forwarded-For.

    when HTTP_REQUEST priority 500 {

    if { [class match -- [IP::client_addr] equals "datagroup_name" ] } {
        HTTP::header insert proxy_action "trusted"
    }

    if { [HTTP::host] eq "myhost.mydomain.com" } {
        pool MYPOOL
    }

}

Would this irule work?

when HTTP_REQUEST {
       if { [HTTP::host] eq "myhost.mydomain.com" } {
       pool MYPOOL
       }
       if { [IP::addr [IP::client_addr] equals "datagroup_name" ] } {
        HTTP::header insert "valuename" "trusted"
        }

 

If the client_addr comes from X-Forward-For and there is a data group named datagroup_name and an ip address is in that group, will it add "trusted"
