How to configure members in pool... Wildcard or specific ports?

I'd like to know the best practice for putting members in a pool. I have a two virtual servers setup for an application, one for tcp 80 and one for port 50000. Both of these virtual servers use the same pool. Is it better to have the members as 192.168.1.10:80 and 192.168.1.10:50000 or just use 192.168.1.10:0? I will have multiple servers in the pool for load balancing.

    There's no relationship between the ports used by the Pool Members and Virtual Servers so you should use whatever port the Members are actually listening on. Everything is automatically translated.
