router pattern
1 TopicCan I use a VIP to route HTTP traffic through a proxy?
We have a server that is behind a FW. The application running on it uses JVM that doesn't have proxy settings enabled. We have already tried using the "-Dhttp.useProxy=true -Dhttp.proxyHost=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -Dhttp.proxyPort=xxxx" java startup options but that doesn't work for all connections it tries to make. So what we would like to try and do is create a Virtual Server on the F5 to be used as a router to look at the traffic, any sourced from this server going to port 80, 8080, 443, 8443 hit the proxy server, and the rest of the traffic hit the normal FW/Gateway. IS something like this possible on the F5, my guess is to setup a new VIP with an irule but i'm not sure of the specific syntax to get this working. Any help would greatly be appreciated.
