hi,

i tried this one: 

 
 class test_de_domain  { 
    "www.test1" 
    "www.test2" 
 } 
  
 when HTTP_REQUEST { 
    if {[matchclass [HTTP::host] starts_with $::test_de_domain]}{ 
       pool test_pool_http 
       log local0. "[HTTP::host] Forwarded" 
    } else { 
       pool drop_pool_http 
       log local0. "[HTTP::host] Failed" 
    } 
 }

now "tail -f /var/log/ltm" returns as expected:

May 18 20:15:51 tmm tmm[643]: Rule http_irule1 : www.test1 Forward

May 18 20:15:55 tmm tmm[643]: Rule http_irule1 : www.test2 Forward

May 18 20:15:58 tmm tmm[643]: Rule http_irule1 : www.test3 Failed
