Hello Jeffro21,

 

 

I use the Perl iControl API.

 

I've not used this 'Node' part of the API you speak of, but I did find:

 

 

http://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/iControl.LocalLB__NodeAddressV2.ashx

 

 

Seems this newer version of iControl:/LocalLB/NodeAddress class completely replaces the older version.

 

It says its for F5 Big IP version 11.0.0 and higher.

 

 

What version of F5 Big IP appliance(s) platform(s) are you targeting?

 

Can you please indicate if this is indeed what you are using (i.e. iControl:/LocalLB/NodeAddress class) to create your 'Node'?

 

Seems the newer version uses names to associated IP addresses and ports to, rather than just using IP addresses.
