Logging based in IP

Hi Jon,

You could set a variable in CLIENT_ACCEPTED if the client IP check matches and then reference that variable in each subsequent event:

 
 when CLIENT_ACCEPTED { 
  
     Add some logic for determining which clients to log for 
    if {[matchclass [IP::client_addr] equals $::filteredAddresses]}{ 
  
       set log_this_connection 1 
  
        Get time for start of TCP connection in milleseconds 
       set tcp_start_time [clock clicks -milliseconds] 
  
        Log the start of a new TCP connection 
       log "New TCP connection from [IP::client_addr]:[TCP::client_port] to [IP::local_addr]:[TCP::local_port]" 
    } 
 } 
 when HTTP_REQUEST { 
  
     Check if we're logging this connection 
    if {$log_this_connection}{ 
  
        Get time for start of HTTP request 
       set http_request_time [clock clicks -milliseconds] 
  
        Log the start of a new HTTP request 
       set LogString "Client [IP::client_addr]:[TCP::client_port] -> [HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]" 
       log local0. "$LogString (request)" 
    } 
 } 
 when HTTP_RESPONSE { 
  
     Check if we're logging this connection 
    if {$log_this_connection}{ 
  
        Received the response headers from the server. Log the pool name, IP and port, status and time delta 
       log local0. "$LogString (response) - pool info: [LB::server] - status: [HTTP::status] (request/response\ 
          delta: [expr [clock clicks -milliseconds] - $http_request_time]ms)" 
    } 
 } 
 when CLIENT_CLOSED { 
  
     Check if we're logging this connection 
    if {$log_this_connection}{ 
  
        Log the end time of the TCP connection 
       log "Closed TCP connection from [IP::client_addr]:[TCP::client_port] to [IP::local_addr]:[TCP::local_port]\ 
          (open for: [expr [clock clicks -milliseconds] - $tcp_start_time]ms)" 
    } 
 } 
 

If this is the only iRule you'll ever use on the VIP, you could use 'event disable all' in CLIENT_ACCEPTED:

 
 when CLIENT_ACCEPTED { 
  
     Add some logic for determining which clients to log for 
    if {[matchclass [IP::client_addr] equals $::filteredAddresses}{ 
  
        Get time for start of TCP connection in milleseconds 
       set tcp_start_time [clock clicks -milliseconds] 
  
        Log the start of a new TCP connection 
       log "New TCP connection from [IP::client_addr]:[TCP::client_port] to [IP::local_addr]:[TCP::local_port]" 
  
    } else { 
  
        Disable all events for this rule and any other rule for this connection 
       event disable all 
    } 
 } 
 when HTTP_REQUEST { 
     Get time for start of HTTP request 
    set http_request_time [clock clicks -milliseconds] 
  
     Log the start of a new HTTP request 
    set LogString "Client [IP::client_addr]:[TCP::client_port] -> [HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]" 
    log local0. "$LogString (request)" 
 } 
 when HTTP_RESPONSE { 
     Received the response headers from the server. Log the pool name, IP and port, status and time delta 
    log local0. "$LogString (response) - pool info: [LB::server] - status: [HTTP::status] (request/response\ 
       delta: [expr [clock clicks -milliseconds] - $http_request_time]ms)" 
 } 
 when CLIENT_CLOSED { 
     Log the end time of the TCP connection 
    log "Closed TCP connection from [IP::client_addr]:[TCP::client_port] to [IP::local_addr]:[TCP::local_port]\ 
    (open for: [expr [clock clicks -milliseconds] - $tcp_start_time]ms)" 
 }
