Great, thanks - I have this working, but I have a few questions, if you dont mind.

 

 

Is the existing persistency profile still used when using irules? - When hitting the VIP, I could get redirected then directed back again to this VIP and lose the ‘node-select=172.16.16.1.80’

 

Should I set additional persistency within the irule for this?

 

Another issue that I may have is that we use a proxy, all testing will appear to originate from one location but several users will want to directly hit one of 4 nodes independently.

 

 

Thanks,

 

Craig.
