NimbostratusTraffic Shaping on F5 Link Controller
Dear all,
I have a requirement to shape my company bandwidth via F5 Link Controller. So the requirement is that I have bandwidth around 10Mbps and I want to divide it into 6Mbps for emails and 4 Mbps for the rest.
Is there any possibility doing it via iRules? If that is possible , anyone could help me with the syntax?
Thanks
Hartono

Hartono_Tjung_3Yes, rate shaping is working if I make a two virtual servers (one for SMTP traffic and the other one for the rest ) then I put the rate shaping accordingly.
But I wonder if that procedure can be simplified using an iRules- nitassis this helpful?
