Yea we're on 10.0+ finding the older version was a lot easier than the new one, thanks for that link.

 

 

I've applied the iRule to my virtual server and created the datagroup with the following records:

 

"/google" := google.com

 

"172.18.252.254/test-google" := google.com

 

 

When I go to /google I get an iis welcome.png which I'm guessing is from the default Pool. It's finding the rule and says it's talking to the new host, but instead it seems to be going to the default pool instead. The author makes this look so simple to setup! I tried setting the default pool to none, but that didn't work either. Suggestions?
