NimbostratusHey there
I'm trying to write an iRule that will do the following: create an event that will match by the client source ip address and if i come from a specific source ip address range then the irule will call another irule that will do something, otherwise (else) it will continue with the original iRule without sending me to the second iRule
Thanks in advance
NimbostratusForgot to mention that i'm running version 13
CumulonimbusHi,
If you want to run a different irule for a specific source address, you can create 2 virtual servers:
with this configuration, vs2 will match for requests from the specific IP. all other requests will be handled by vs1.
Source address only support 1 network (a single address has a mask length 32) you can create as many vs with different source address as you want.
AltostratusYou CAN:
1) Call another virtual server from an irule
2) Set a global variable to be used in another irule, but remember that TCL is event driven, so an event such as "CLIENT_CONNECT" can only be used once.
3) Build the login in a monolithic irule.
(3) Is nearly always the right solution.

AltocumulusCheckout the call function.
For example, I use one to call an HTML page when the server farm is in "maintenance" mode.
example_include.irule
proc display_page {} {
HTTP::respond 200 content {
HTML code to return herethen call it via the irule you have assigned to the VS.
main.irule
if { conditional_here } {
call example_include.irule::display_page
}
