Great!

 

I have recently detected that the expression "VIP-targeting-VIP is not possible using Loadbalancing resolution" in my last comment is not true 🙂

 

To do so, it's necessary to use the expression "

LB::reselect
" before "
virtual {VS_name}
"

 

when LB_SELECTED {
    if { [LB::server addr] eq '10.1.1.1' } {
        LB::reselect virtual vs-local-traffic-handler
    }
}
