NimbostratusThanks, I'll give this a try. To answer your question this is the actual url that should take me to the back end server on port 57070 http://swfm1.dev.mesaaz.gov/fm_http/
See the customer enters this from the Internet in their browser then hits the VIP solidwaste.mesaaz.gov within that VIP is the iRule so basically all 3 url's go to the same VIP but have different pools to be directed to. Hope that helps.

CirrostratusYea. the connection to the back end server will go on whatever port you specify on the pool member. So, you're assigning pools based on host names, and those pools are telling the F5 to connect to the specific port on the node. The user will still use the same url as normal.
