AltocumulusRouting problem for connect() in iRule
Hi Vladimir,
Have you checked if the TMOS interfaces have access to the mailserver IP using TMOS routes? (Under "Network - Routes" in the GUI)
As the "telnet" command is run from the management side, it may use either the management interface or a TMOS interface for outbound traffic, whereas the iRules will only use TMOS interfaces for communication.
Here is more details on the (sometimes tricky) management routing; https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K13284
Hope this helps.

Vladimir_ShishkHi, Alex, thank you for your answer.
I added a static route to mailserver through Common partition and mailserver stopped to become unreachable, thank you.
