ProxyPass v10.2 for APM - Why EXTERNAL data group?

Can someone explain why the data group for ProxyPass v10.2 has to be an external one? I tried using a simple string data group, and this seems to be working fine.     What are the problems I can...

Configuration Requirements

 

1) The ProxyPass iRule needs to be applied to an HTTP virtual server or

 

an HTTPS virtual server with a clientssl profile applied to it.

 

2) A data group (LTM -> iRules -> Data Groups tab) must be defined with

 

the name "ProxyPassVIRTUAL" where VIRTUAL is the name of the virtual server

 

(case-sensitive!). See below for the format of this data group (class).

 

Note that this currently must be an EXTERNAL data group.

 

 

 

I see what you are saying, but I cannot see any reason why the functionality would require it to be an External Data Group. Can you test it with a Non-External Data Group?
