Policies and profiles always execute before iRules for the same network layer.
For example we have policy to ensure iRules events are enabled as we have several iRules that do an
event disable all
during select errors, to ensure we re-enable all the iRule event for the next HTTP request (multiplexed clientside connections) we use policies to run the TCL commend to event enable all
. We can only do this as the Policies execute before our iRules.
However, your
CLIENT_ACCEPTED
iRule event will execute before your HTTP profile or any Policy looking at the HTTP request as this is simply the order of events based on the F5 processing through the network layers.
