Will IRules direct to a down pool memebr ?

Thanks alot

 

i have VS with 1 pool having 2 pool members , each pool members has a monitor .

 

 

I need IRule with the following Logic :

 

 

if src-ip=X Load balance to pool member1 ( but after chacking if pool member 1 is up ) , else load balance to pool member2

 

 

checking pool status is here :
