XML Content Based Routing

I was able to get the XML profile to work by changing the path query to all lowercase.

I modified the XML profile to search for 'sample' and removed the namespace definition. Passing 'sample' in the request resulted in a match. The issue appears to be with the namespace definition.

My namespace is abc:orgName

The hierarchy of the XML document is... soapenv:Body abc:level1 abc:level2 abc:orgName

Does the hierarchy matter or do I only need to define the abc namespace?

Are there any logs I can inspect to view the inspected XML documents? The issue appears to be with the XML profile itself.

Can someone tell me what the URL in the namespace mapping is used for? Does the LTM reach out to that URL?

mapping namespace "http://www.abc.com"

I have modified my XML profile as follows:

profile xml Routing_by_Org
  defaults from XML
  namespace mappings {
    mapping prefix "abc"
    mapping namespace "http://www.abc.com"
    }
  path queries "//abc:orgName/*"

I am still not seeing any matches in the statistics. Also, my iRule does not appear to trigger.

This is the iRule

when XML_CONTENT_BASED_ROUTING
{
log local0. "XML Detected"
for (set i 0) { $i < $XML::count } {incr i} {
log local0. $XML::queries($i)
log local0. $XML::values($i)
if { ([matchclass [$XML::values($i) equals Routing_by_Org])} {
pool pool_A
}
}
}

The first logging event on line three never ocurrs which leads me to believe the event on line one is never triggered.

I have created the XML profile and applied the profile to the VS. However, when I check the profile statistics by navigating to Overview | Statistics | Local Traffic | Profile Summary | XML I am only seeing documents with no matches.

This is the XML profile I created.

profile xml Routing_by_Org defaults from xml namespace mappings { mapping prefix "abc" mapping namespace "xmlns:abc" } path queries "//abc:orgName"
