NimbostratusIFILE with non-html content
Hi Everyone,
I have a requirement to use the LB to load a pdf file as a response to particular URL. Would this be possible using an irule with an ifile combination. If so how would like.
We want to avoid having to build a VM just to serve a pdf file and considering the possibility of importing the pdf file unto the LTM can call it with an irule using the ifile.
