Multiple Arecords to LB IP

Hey all we have a Recruiting Management application we have sitting behind the 6400 Load balancer.

 

We allow our customers to have their own domain point to the application. The problem we are having is that as some point during a process the cgi.server_name variable switches from the customer domain back to ours. We have checked in all of our code and have no code that does this. I was hoping that one of you have had this problem and can shed some light on it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. If you need more info from me let me know.

 

 

Regards,

    Hi Jay -

     

     

    That's not something LTM would do without an explicit configuration in the form of an iRule, since it only happens for some requests.

     

     

    Must be something on the server. I'd assume your domain is the default, and a quick search seems to reveal that refering to CGI.server_name to build self-referencing links is the accepted approach for handling requests to other domains. That logic is apparently required at each point the name will be referenced, so I'd say you're missing that server name translation code somewhere in your app.
