Load Balance issues for Bank Webpages-Gov sites

Hello! I'm having issues with several bank websites and goverment sites in LatinAmerica that have a restrictive policy where if you send a request coming from 200.10.10.10 IP all replies will be exclusive to that IP. Given the fact that we have LBA´s in our network with 4 different Internet connections. we get a request timeout from the webpage as the traffic is being balanced througout the Circuits.

 

I'm looking for options on How can i set up the F5 LBA to send traffic for those specific sites via a single circuit and not do Load Balancing?

 

thanks in advance

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
  if {[HTTP::host] eq "special.site.com"} {
    pool "pool.special.site"
  }
}

    This is a simple example of choosing a pool based on the site requested. Need quite bit more information to suggest something more useful. For example what does "exclusive to that IP" actually mean?
