NimbostratusHow to use findclass?
Hello,
I wrote the following rule.
However the rule do not output anything.
How to use the "findclass()" command?
log [getfield [findclass "abc" test-class] " " 2]
The type of "test-class" is string.
And the contents is
abc 192.168.1.1
def 192.168.1.2
ghi 192.168.1.3
Regards.

you may try with $::test-class as in SOL3386- For those who don't know, SOL's are F5 Solutions that are posted on our F5 Technical Support Center website http://ask.f5.com

CTS_14402Thanks a lot!- I'd like to add that there is a shortcut to using getfield with findclass.
findclass takes an optional 3rd argument which is the separator. When the class item is matched the separator will split the class and the trailing portion will be returned.
In example, these are equivalent:set foo [getfield [findclass "something" $::my_class] " " 2]set foo [findclass "something" $::my_class " "]
