Hi Jason,
We can't use a default source_addr profile because the inbound traffic goes through a CDN, which they append the client IP and their proxy IP to the XFF header. We use the irule to look into this and persist the connection for the client to a server in the backend. This works fine with IPV4, however there are instances where some of our user's ISP is giving them an IPV6 address. How can this iRule or any other method be used to read the IPV6 along with the IPV4 (this irule) and persist the client
based on that?
Thanks!
it should be possible, but I really need to see samples of the contents of your XFF headers in ipv4 and ipv6 to see if you are indexing and splitting correctly for both protocols. I can track down bugs and experience in the meantime. Sorry, I don't have much operational ipv6 experience
