Hamish;

 

 

I believe the length of the data in packet we are looking at is 281 bytes. I thought I saw code somewhere to allow you to specify length. I don't think the data is textual, probably binary, not that i know for sure, i am using wireshark and can search through the packet to find the AETitle i would expect embedded in the packet always at the same spot 0040 of the conversation. Does that make sense? Not sure about using a stream, i am more than happy to learn more so i will take a look ath the proxy pass irule, can we still do that if the data is not textual?

 

I've never tried a stream on binary content before. I'm not sure what will happen since it cares about character encoding (ASCII being the default). You could try it with a hardcoded stream profile on the second vs and see if it works. No irule required then.

Or you could try the single vs approach as above with the single vs detecting the primary PAC being down and accessing the secondary as a separate pool with a rewrite dynamically. So client doesnt need to open a second connection. But that may be overkill for you perhaps.
