iRule GeoIP Targeting

Hi ,

 

 

Arrggg , didn't notice that one on using abbrev...great thanks

 

 

Testing with an iRule from the article works fine:

 

 

when CLIENT_ACCEPTED { if { !(([whereis [IP::client_addr] state] equals "York") or ([whereis [IP::client_addr] state] equals "Leeds")) } { pool TIN-HTTP-POOL }}

 

 

So , I think this leads onto another problem with potentially it using the Data List lookup from the if and the switch $state

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

set state [class match -value [whereis [IP::client_addr] state] equals uk_regions]

 

if {$state ne ""}{

 

switch $state {

 

"Greater London" {HTTP::redirect "http://62.190.x.c/ab/grlon/"}

 

"Leeds" {HTTP::redirect "http://62.190.x.x/ab/leeds"}

 

"York" {HTTP::redirect "http://62.190.x.x/ab/York/"}

 

default {pool TIN-HTTP-POOL}

 

}

 

}

 

}

 

 

Changing the data list type from string to integer reveals:

 

- bad IP network address formatInvalid class element York for class uk_region invoked from within "class match -value [whereis [IP::client_addr] state] equals uk_region"

 

 

So clearly it has to be string , but crucially shows that the first part is functioning in terms of finding the "state" in the first place just now an issue with the element for the lookup to that list...

 

 

Thanks
