iRule "virtual" command to use virtual server as pool member - how does it work? Typical event lifecycle?

Hi,

referencing another virtual server via the

virtual

command should go through all protocol stack layers and trigger all related events.

Instead using another virtual server on the same unit as a pool member is not supported and did not work in most BIG-IP/TMOS versions I know. At least it was not designed to work this way, afaik.

Terminating SSL on the incoming virtual server and referencing another VS via iRule should be fine in my opinion and working as you expect.

Thanks, Stephan
