Hello,

 

This shouldn't be any problem at all. Thank you for sharing the architecture it really helps 🙂 Your code is good. Just add the following log statements from my example and you will see the entries in /var/log/ltm.

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {
   log local0. "Http path equals [HTTP::path]"
   
        switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::path]] {
        "/fristpath/_" {
        log local0. "http path was [HTTP::path] --> Going to fristpool"   
            
            pool fristpool
   }
   
   "/secpath/_" {
        log local0. "http path was [HTTP::path] --> Going to secpool"      
   pool secpool    
   }
   
   "/socket01/*" {
 log local0. "http path was [HTTP::path] --> Going to socket01 pool"      
   pool socket01 
   }
  } 
}

I tested most of the common variables of the URL's in your examples. Here is my log output:

 

/Common/Redirect_Path : http path equals /                                         
/Common/Redirect_Path : http path equals /fristpath                                
/Common/Redirect_Path : http path equals /fristpath/_                              
/Common/Redirect_Path : http path was /fristpath/_--> Going to fristpool           
/Common/Redirect_Path : http path equals /secpath/                                 
/Common/Redirect_Path : http path equals /secpath                                  
/Common/Redirect_Path : http path equals /secpath/_

/Common/Redirect_Path : http path equals /secpath/_.hello

/Common/Redirect_Path : http path equals /socket01/                                
/Common/Redirect_Path : http path was /socket01/ --> Going to socket01 pool        
/Common/Redirect_Path : http path equals /socket01/hello                           
/Common/Redirect_Path : http path was /socket01/hello --> Going to socket01 pool
