NimbostratusHow to forward traffic to virtual server in irule?
I want F5 forwards traffic that receive through Virtual server to another virtual server in the same F5 by using irules.How i create irule for that requirement?
First i try below irule but it dose not pass and return error.
irules are following :
when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
set server_ip [ IP::local_addr ]
set client_ip [ IP::client_addr ]
if {$client_ip =="0.0.0.0"} {
discard
return
}
if { [ matchclass $server_ip equals $::host_for_transparent_proxy ] } {
log local0.info " (TPROXY ROUTE)'$client_ip' ---> Divert to MSP '$server_ip'"
use node 10.217.164.212 8080
return
} elseif { [ matchclass $client_ip equals $::net_for_mobile_ip_test0045_apn ] } {
log local0.info " (WA-Proxy ROUTE)'$client_ip' ---> Divert to WA '$server_ip'"
persist source_addr
use pool WA_8080_pool
return
} else {
log local0.info " (TPROXY ROUTE)'$client_ip' ---> Forward to '$server_ip'"
virtual ANY-Forward
}
}
ANY-Forward is virtual server on that F5
error are following :
01070151:3: Rule [test] error:
line 20: [invalid keyword "ANY-FORWARD" must be: name] [ANY-FORWARD]

- It looks like you're not running a recent enough version of the BIG-IP software. That ability is only in v9.4.0 and later releases.
In the example you've given, the syntax you're using is correct, but it's expecting "virtual name" (which will return the name of the current virtual server). See http://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/default.aspx/iRules/virtual.html for details.
