P2P iRule question

I have an iRule to direct P2P traffic to cache servers.

 

The iRule is associated to a wildcard VS catching all TCP sessions.

 

All other protocols are bridged using vlangroup.

 

The iRule is attached.

 

 

Questions:

 

1. Any comments on the iRule? (since it is dealing with all TCP sessions)

 

2. can I forward the session based on layer 2 (LINK::nexthop),

 

instead of forward which is using the routing table.

 

 

Thanks

    You certainly should be able to forward based on the nexthop info, though it might require a bit more logic in your coding.

     

     

    I'll take a look at the attached txt file and see if I have any other comments.
