It's the same whether you're explicitly providing an IP address or using IP::client_addr to get the client IP address. So the first two are equivalent, as are the second two if the client IP address for the test was 10.42.2.2
[IP::addr 10.42.2.2/24 equals 10.42.2.1]: 1
[IP::addr 10.42.2.2 equals 10.42.2.1/24]: 1
[IP::addr [IP::client_addr]/24 equals 10.42.2.1]: 1
[IP::addr [IP::client_addr] equals 10.42.2.1/24]: 1
If you have a default pool on the VIP and you're making the pool decision for the entire TCP connection, you don't need to explicitly define a pool in an else clause.
