How long for rule name?

Hi,

 

 

I don't think the length of the name is the problem. I have a rule name which is 40 characters long and it works as expected. What version are you running and what are the names of the rule which works and doesn't work? I would guess the name which isn't working might have a reserved word in it (Click here or Click here).

Hi,

 

 

Rule name is "rule_ccb_sri_prefer" that doesn't wotk.

 

 

I change it to "rule2", It's can be run.

 

 

If "rule" is reserve word, Why "rule2" can be run?

 

 

Thank,

 

Bob

 

I forgot BIGIP version.

 

 

 

BIG-IP Version 9.1.1 54.6

I tested that rule name on 9.4 and didn't see any issues. Do you see any errors in /var/log/ltm? Else, what are the symptoms of the issue?

Addition

 

 

I don't see any error (except member status up/down) in /var/log/ltm.

I don't know of any issues with pool or iRule names in 9.1.x that would cause a connection failure. You might open a case with F5 support to investigate this.
