Very good !

 

One more question then...In this Irule:

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

if { [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] contains "address" } {

 

pool address_pool

 

}

 

}

 

 

Is the pool 'address_pool' a literal ? I mean, the pool 'name' is actually 'address_pool' and it doesn't need to be assigned to the VS, Big IP knows to send the traffic to that pool based on it's name ?

 

 

Thanks for all the help !!
