Parallel requests BIGIP F5 LTM

Hi all, one "simple" question. It is possible to send one requests (amqp message) to more than one member instead to balance the requests?

 

Regards Joern

    Hi Joern, if we were discussing about tcp or udp protocol i would say:

     

    there is a clone pool option on the vs which could do the trick depending on the protocol. what you could investigate as well is the sideband command in irule : https://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/iRules.SIDEBAND.ashx, This allow you to forge a connexion in irule, and maybe with duplicate payload.

     

    But amqp seems to be a link layer protocol from what i understand so i doubt we can really play with it.

    Hi Arnaud, the sideband command looks good. And we talk about tcp (http) protocol. I will make some tests. Thanks for answer!
