iRule to use HEADER name and value to redirect bot traffic to a specific pool

lots of questions and some things i don't get in it.

1) you say && but i dont see that later

2) succinct is probably a typo, what do you mean exactly?

the effect of logging will depend on the capacity of your box and how frequently your site is visited. you can start and see what happens, it will be hard to just say fine or not now.

if you are looking to see if this accomplishes what you want why not just try, setup a test virtual server and send the requests via curl or postman or ... and look at the logging.

if you want to know if there are better ways then ill leave that to others. one advise is to look at the iRule documentation and other examples.

one thing though the { } around the log statement i don't get.
