You have two solutions:

 

  • The old solution is to use iRules to change pool based on HTTP header "Host". this is the solution everybody will answer on devcentral
  • The new solution (since 11.4) is to use LTM Policy. easier to configure, no syntax error.

the policy must be created with:

 

  • require : http
  • control : forwarding

rule 1:

 

  • condition : HTTP-Host Host equals web1.myapp.com
  • Action : Forward pool Pool_B

rule 2:

 

  • condition : HTTP-Host Host equals web2.myapp.com
  • Action : Forward pool Pool_C

rule 3:

 

  • Condition : Leave blank
  • Action : Forward pool Pool_A
