geoip (Continent, Country) WideIP pool selection trouble
Hello
It looks like (at least in 9.4.5) the pool selection rule based on Continent / Country is simply not working...
When i'm trying to set topology rule manually by entering IP subnet's - everything works fine.
A bit more detailed:
Two datacentres (US- Nap and EU - Ttc)
Test topology rule "Continent is North America - DC is Nap, Continent is Europe - DC is Ttc"
WideIP with two pools (each contains only servers from one DC)
When i'm trying to resolve the domain - i'm always got round-robin ("rotated") answers - one by one from each pool.
In case i'll add the topology rule with an IP address (from which i'm doing all tests - it is 207.244.175.0/24) - everything is starting to work immediately (sure, only for hosts within this network)
It looks like something is broken inside of the software...
There is no way to see the database (it would be really nice to have an option to load geoip database from the maxmind for example)
So, what should i do?
Geoip support - this is the ONLY one reason why we bought big-ip appliances (they are quite pricey - more than 200.000$)
