What happens when a Client request is not meeting the conditions of an iRule ?

A virtual server is listening at 10.10.1.100:any and has the following iRule associated with it: when CLIENT_ACCEPTED { if {[TCP::local_port] equals 21 } { pool ftp pool } else if {[TCP::local_port] equals 23 } { pool telnet pool } If a user connects to 10.10.1.100 and port 22, which pool will receive the request?

  • Traffic will forward to the default pool if configured.Otherwise it will drop the connection.

     

  • Hi,

     

    It depends on the VS type and the default pool settings.

     

    If you are not using a forwarding vs an you have no default pool, the client will receive a tcp reset
