In my case, I am only getting tcp protocol.

Tried below iRule as well.

when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
    if { [TCP::local_port] eq 491 } {
        if { [TCP::payload] contains "URI1" } {
            pool QA_URI1_491
        } elseif { [TCP::payload] contains "URI2" } {
            pool QA_URI2_491
        }
    }
}

ndubey2 In order to do what you want I believe you would have to convert each string to binary and then search for that binary value to make a decision. Sadly I haven't had the opportunity to perform this type of iRule so I don't really have much more direction other than converting the respective strings to binary and making the match that way.
