NimbostratusHi Dan,
I would avoid using regex. Another method is to use lindex and split tcl commands
when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
set ip4 [lindex [split [IP::client_addr] "."] 3]
if { ($ip4 >= 0) and ($ip4 < 65) } {
pool pool_1
} else if { ($ip4 >= 65) and ($ip4 < 129) } {
pool pool_2
} else if { ($ip4 >= 129) and ($ip4 < 193) } {
pool pool_3
} else if { ($ip4 >= 193) and ($ip4 < 256) } {
pool pool_4
}
}
This is untested of course
I hope this helps
