Steve,

 

Thanks for your help!

 

If I get behind the firewall and F5 I can go to

 

http://172.20.5.15:8080/ESB/App1/

 

I have my pool set for 8080 and 172.20.5.15 is the only host in my pool.

It looks like it works with 5 but it isn't doing the port, it is only working for the default pool. So I think it is picking up the right URI and just going to the default pool which is 8080. Not working in the App2 and App3 because of the port? I don't have to define the pools in the rule do I? Can the rule push traffic to a pool that isn't in the config for the Vhost?

 

 

Thanks
