Hi zamroni,

I was using the default udp health monitor (timeout 16).

if "IPFIX::destination send" waits for the completion of the ipfix transmission, why do you think the http responses were intermittent since the pool went down? i suspected it will affect all responses. 

the ipfix pool was down for a while, which in result affected the application response stability, where the iRule was applied to.

and it only got fixed when I removed the health monitor from the pool.
