It isn't possible to do what you are asking with an F5.

 

 

Clone Pooling is for use with IDS (Intrusion Detection System) or User Experience Logging (this is what my company uses it for).

 

Connection Mirroring is used for maintaining state across an F5 Pair. In case of Failure, the F5 maintains the session information, so that neither the client or the server see an interuption or disconnect.

 

 

What you are asking for isn't possible because the client is only talking to one pool or the other. Any responses from the second pool would be ignored and any session information would be considered invalid.
