Jul 25, 2007Thanks guys.
I am definitely after a solution which is persistent between iterations of the irule, and even potentially across reboots. Furthermore, the external classes will all need to be updated on the fly as new uri/pool mappings are generated.
I plan to look a bit further into the possibility of splitting the data into multiple external class files, getting them down to a more manageable size, and doing a hash of the uri submitted to pick which class to query.
Hopefully class updates are possible via iControl.
Will test and report back!
