Jun 16, 2005Problem with map class to node
Hi,
we are having very strange behaviour on one of client sides with an iRule which should map client on specific nodes in a class.
In my opinion the following iRule should meet ...

Jun 17, 2005Hi,
first thanks for your answere.
Here are the requested informations.
a) Did you edit/enter the rule using the GUI or command line?
We entered the rule in the GUI.
b) Can you provide an example of an entry in the class?
The class looks like this:
class internet_resinwww_10445 {
"a 10.3.36.22:10445"
"b 10.3.36.23:10445"
"c 10.3.36.24:10445"
"d 10.3.36.25:10445"
}
c) Did the rule fail the same way when using the "pool xxx member a.b.c.d" command? d) Does the rule fail when not using findclass (eg, using node with a specific value provided)?
Yes, the rule also fails when we use the "pool netbank-banking member" command. It doesn´t matter if we use "node" or "member".
d) Does the rule fail when not using findclass (eg, using node with a specific value provided)?
No we didn´t checked that.
e) Does the rule fail if the first line after the if is a comment () and the next line is the node command?
We did a lot testing but unfortunately not with only the in front of the node command.
We always have had some log statements together with the in the complete rule.
f) Are there any extra whitespace characters at the end of any of the lines (try removing them if there are)?
No, we precisely checked if there are whitespaces.
g) Are there any other rules that might be interfering on this virtual (rules are evaluated in a specific order and each time you edit the rule might be changing the order)?
Yes, we have a second rule on this virtual server which inserts a cipher:
virtual vs_proxy_XXX_443 {
destination a.b.c.d:443
ip protocol tcp
profile pool_insert_client_ip proxy_clientssl_www_netbank-money_de proxy_serverssl_www_netbank-money_de tcp
persist pool_persist_simple
pool netbank-banking
rule rule_vs_proxy_insert_cipher
rule pool_select_node_netbank-banking
vlans AZI WHZ WSZ disable
It's very hard for us to debug problems through posts on the forum which is why I recommend you ultimately contact support.
I tried to open a case for that because this thing seems to be a kind of a bug and that was the answere from support:
