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

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

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

}

The irule worked.  We had a check on the proxy that allowed or denied based on the value and it worked.  We had a different issue that caused a different problem, although it did help us figure out another issue we were not aware of.  Thanks everyone for your help.
