NimbostratusHow do I read my tables with iControl?
Hi all,
I use the table iRule command to add statistics to current sessions. Now I have developed an iControl API to allow c web team design their own webUI. Now I like to read the statistics from the subtables, but cannot find the iControl methods refering to iRule subtables. Any help welcome.
many thanks,
Cay

The REST API is still pretty bleeding edge -- you may wish to point your developers towards the SOAP interface.

Hi mhite,
thanks for the idea. I ll let them see the SOAP interface.
For now I implement a internal data group to handle the tmm local session table values. Since I read the values through the icontrol api only. I ll post the code when ready.
many thanks,

- Cay_Jeglinski_1Hi all, now finally the solution is as follows: I add my round trip timers into subtables of the session table. I have an iRule to read the subtables and return the corresponding timers and parse the result. So no iControl at all. All I done is to follow Jason Rahms ideas in the mentioned article of his. many thanks, Cay
