We would like to use LTM policies to forward trafic to different pools depending on the URL path.
Example:
/dir1: forward to pool_1
/dir2: forward to pool_2
/dir3: forward to pool_3
We are also using an ASM policy, which is the same for all three directories.
I created a new LTM Policy that includes forwarding and asm controls. Then I created a default rule without conditions that applies the ASM policy.
Now I am trying to create rules with specific forwarding actions for each directory.
However I am unable to create a forwarding-only rule, LTM requires that I always add an asm action to each rule. If I do not add an asm action it does not allow saving the rule.
Why am I required to add (repeat) an asm action in every rule?
LTM Version 11.4.1

let say it's not an issue but by design. For ASM you need to have a default rule and for each rule an ASM policy specified.

This is an old thread I know, but still there's no more information here and I can't find anything searching.
What is a default rule? With ASM, what is required in the default rule to not break anything and allow the policy to work?
