Hi Kurt, The rules are a list, so you would do it this way:

>>> vip = b.tm.ltm.virtuals.virtual.load(name='testvip')
>>>vip.rules
[u'/Common/tcptest'] 
>>> vip.rules = ['/Common/tcptest', '/Common/platform_info']

I did an absolute update on the rules attribute, but I could have also just appended with:

vip.rules.append('/Common/platform_info')
