The WAPolicySwitcher class will connect to two BIG-IPs and allow for Web Accelerator application policies to be added and removed from a Web Accelerator. In our testing, we use this class to adjust how the web accelerator is dealing with traffic.
Important: This class must be called from within a Ruby program.
Configuration
The following files need to be changed:
Edit the bigip-config.ylm and bigip2-config.ylm files to include the addresses and credentials for the two BIG-IPs.
Edit the WebAccelerator.Applications.wsdl and WebAccelerator.Applications2.wsdl files to include the correct IP addresses for the two BIG-IPs. (4th to last line in each file)
