Time Limit on TCP Connections

Keeping track of timers in iRules is something that's still quite difficult. There is talk of adding some commands in future versions that would enable this functionality more easily.

 

 

Until then, you could certainly keep track of how many transactions have come through, and perform some action based on that number. As far as what action you want to perform, you'll have to peruse the docs a bit here on DevCentral. You could just start rejecting new connections, or you could set the VIP to down, etc. It really depends on what you want to achieve.

 

 

HTH,
