Load balance to specific pool by reading the X-Forwarded-For IP address

I've been asked if we can send specific client to a different pool based on the X-Forwarded-For IP address. I suspect this must be done via an IRule. Any help would be appreciated.   Thanks

Hi mate,

maybe something like the following

when HTTP_REQUEST {
if {[HTTP::header values "X-Forwarded-For"] contains "1.2.3.4"}{
  pool some_pool
    } 
}
