Limiting Sessions?

Has anyone implemented an iRule that limits the number of sessions to a particular virtual server?     Failing that... Does anyone know if it's possible to access the session persistence table ...

And the rule is done...

 

 

http://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/default.aspx/iRules/HTTP_Session_Limit.html

 

 

 

Which uses the new table command in LTM 10.1.0 to count the number of actual sessions (Not connections) and redirect to a suitable holding page.

 

 

The expansion of the iRule to eliminate the obvious 'features' desirable or otherwise is left as an exercise for later.
