two build in features could help, but it's not making sur current users are not impacted :
- Connection limit: Specifies the maximum number of concurrent connections allowed for the virtual server. Setting this to 0 turns off connection limits. The default is 0.
- Connection Rate Limit: Specifies the maximum number of connections-per-second allowed for a virtual server. When the number of number of connections-per-second reaches the limit for a given virtual server, the system redirects additional connection requests.
They are available per VS or per pool member.
If you want to go with an irule you can start from this one : https://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/iRules.virtual_server_connection_limit_with_HTTP_response.ashx.
You need then to add existing user concept by creating a table with either IP addresses or user's ID to bypass the logic.
