NimbostratusThanks for the feedback Denny! I see what you're saying and will test. I'm not sure why I'd need the default pool for the rule as it is now, but will keep that in mind (at least, I'm all clear on how to do that, cheers).
@hoolio:
Right! I was hoping that using event disable would be an efficiency here; it would be acceptable if a handful of connections somehow ended up going to the bot farm when it shouldn't or vice versa. However, 'return' looks like a safer option, and the load imparted by the iRule running on every HTTP_REQUEST event shouldn't be very significant (based on how much similar iRule processing load we're incurring now, which isn't much).
Excellent guys, thanks for the help! I'm testing today and we'll see what happens.
