Incoming 443 Passthru LTM and use iRule to redirect to pool

Client connections come in SSL 443; needs to pass-thru the LTM with no modification/terminating.

 

The Clients SSL session needs to terminate directly on the server. The LTM cannot touch the session. Trying to use the irule to look for a string in the URL - if found redirect to pool_2_8089. If string doesnt exist - default to pool_1

 

 

 

pool_2_8089

 

Member server 192.168.1.101:8089 (is terminating SSL)

 

 

 

pool_1

 

Member server 192.168.1.101:443 (exact same server just terminating SSL at 443)

 

 

 

I have this iRule

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

if { ([active_members pool_2_8089] > 0) and ([HTTP::uri] contains "/submitVXUMessage") } {

 

pool pool_2_8089}

 

else {pool pool_1}

 

}

 

 

 

The vs_dbtest

 

listening at 443

 

no ssl client or server profiles

 

In order to use iRule - I had to select http profile

 

pool_1 is default

 

 

 

ANY help is much appreciated.
