tcp connection logging at maximum demarcation points

Hi Chris--

 

 

We really have no way in iRules to differentiate between the different types of close that might take place on a connection: RST, FIN, timeout all look the same inside of iRules.

 

 

Calculating how much data is transfered would definitely be possible, although you'd be introducing latency to each connection & adding system overhead by collecting in both directions and doing the math.

 

 

I think GUI control of the syslog config would be a good add to the product. I'd say definitely open a case and request a CR or Feature Request for that functionality or to be linked to any existing CR requesting it.
