Hello JRahm 

Thanks for your explaination.

My question is: As i know, the local traffic policies execute before iRule. In my case, we have VS with backend pool, an iRule to redirect when pool member = 0 and a local traffic policy. When pool down, my VS run iRule (and send RST as well) instead of perform local traffic policy. Is that an expected behavior?

Thanks
