My name is Steve Lyons and I reside in Tampa, FL with my 3 children, wife and Frenchie. We live the typical Florida life of swimming, fishing, boating, and BBQ. I started my F5 journey as a customer in 2009 where I was first introduced to it as a "load balancer." I have since deployed and maintained all modules realizing the BIG-IP is so much more. I joined F5 in 2015 where I have made it a personal mission to educate as many people as I can so they too can take advantage of the tremendous potential of the BIG-IP.

Hi Steve,

 

This looks awesome. One thing, is the code block for the customized variable assign "session.logon.last.upn" supposed to have newlines?

 

Another thing, could we modify the URL to use different IPs to reach other hosts?
