when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
set client [IP::client_addr]
set clienthash [md5 [IP::client_addr]]
log "the client is: $client the clienthash is: $clienthash "
}
I get log entries like this:
the client is: 10.10.91.1 the clienthash is: "ª¨4ÙÁWh²ÄÒ(·èr
but I expect that clienthash should be:
db6e0e56e15da22be2bae7fb51139b6e
Are my expectations wrong, or is something not working right?

We are about to deploy a load balanced cache cluster into production and this would be optimal.
NimbostratusDear all,
I was following this threath, since I was facing a simular issue.
when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
binary scan [md5 [IP::client_addr]] w1 clienthash
set picked [lindex [active_members -list hackit_pool] [expr {$clienthash % [active_members hackit_pool]}]]
pool hackit_pool member [lindex $picked 0] [lindex $picked 1]
}
the issue was that the binary Scan did not generate a Numeric Value but a Binary Value.
binary scan [md5 [IP::client_addr]] w1 clienthash
generates a Value $clienthash available for the expression.
