    Did you try using a CURL to the VS or telnet to check response ? You can also use the developer tools within a browser like Chrome to identify the response.

    Hi yuanqiang,

    a 

    reject
    Virtual Server should simply respond with an 
    TCP-RST
    packet to every connection attempt.

    To troubleshoot your configuration you may try to ping the Virtual IP Address 192.168.20.12 and attach an debugging iRule to your VS to see if you're reaching the Virtual Server.

    when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
    log local0.debug "Hello World"
}

    Cheers, Kai
