Simon, thnk you for taking the time to answer my beginner questions ;-) Appreciate.

 

OK. Another question on this then. Am tying to explore every possibility possible. So I bumped into the iRules and am reading on these now. As I understand they are trigggered on (for example) send and receive commands. So If I have ip:port of node-name/poolmember name available in these iRules I could perform an inline replacement in the url before sending.

 

Is that assumption correct? If so, the 100mln dollar question: do I have the address:port or the node/member name available in the iRules?
