Limit outgoing connections
I need your help in figuring out whether there is any way to limit number of active outgoing connections/virtual server at F5? I did web search and found that it is possible to add an iRule (http://devcentral.f5.com/Wiki/default.aspx/iRules/LimitConnectionsFromClient.html) but I think it counts only incoming connections. I also found that Virtual Server has Connection Limit (LocalLB.VirtualServer.set_connection_limit) but I am not sure whether it counts incoming/outgoing/both.
Thanks,
Ankur
- Minn_62043CirrostratusDo you mean connections going to the pool members? Each pool member also has its own connection limit.
- Traditionally... Connections come into the box, so you would limit connections going to your poool members..
- ankuragiwal_102NimbostratusI was able to put limit on outbound connections using LocalLB::SNATTranslationAddress::set_connection_limit
