command to exit an iRule but continue processing other iRules

is there a command to exit an iRule and move to the next iRules? I want to add an IF statement and if true, exit the current iRule but continue processing any additional iRules. I'm using "return" several times within the rule to bypass sections:

 

 # return if foo app server

  if { [class match [IP::client_addr] equals foo_exclusions]} {

      return

  }

 

This works to return past several sections of the rule but I'm looking for a way to exit the current rule if the first IF statement = TRUE. Is there a way to do that? Thanks in advance!

  • I don't think there is such a specific iRule command. You probably can achieve the same logic with use of the 'event' and 'priority' statement. See:
