In response I must add that these seven websites are going to be on 2 servers which are supposed to load balance between eachother, making them, in the words of our server admin one server. These servers have two different IP addresses???? I am not quite sure on how they plan on doing that. I have set two health monitors for the pool already. So you are saying I shouldn't need any irules for any of these web sites that must transverse the f5 then route to the server itself? I am a cisco guy and this f5 stuff was thrown at me. I have managed to get these things running for one sharepoint service but this new request seems a bit involved. All help is appreciated.
