Hi Gavin,

 

I went down this road 3 years ago and we came to several conclusions before any attempt made to write one piece of irule code:

 

 

 

1) Lines between app and F5 support are blurred

 

2) App owners would take even longer to write up a fix because a "workaround" would be in place with no incentive to resolve

 

3) The Application would need to be already written to respond to the F5 in a manner which can be used to work with a status page

 

 

Again this is what we came up with, but I thought of offering some insight as to how it was handled within my company
