NimbostratusTriggering an action based on TCP Connections
Is it possible to trigger an action on the base of how many tcp connection a specific VIP has under a http request? If yes how to use the variable in order to define it?
Many Thanks in advance ...
Can the sessions be replaced with connectionswith the way you are prescribing?
if you want to track tcp connection, you may increase the counter in CLIENT_ACCEPTED and decrease it in CLIENT_CLOSED.

what action do you want?
you can count number of current tcp connections to virtual server using table sessiondb (table irule command) and take an action when the number reaches threshold.
