Hi, I tried looking up in the wiki, and the commands make me wonder if i could do something like

set poolName [LB::server pool]
pool $poolName member 192.168.10.100 80
clone pool $poolName member 192.168.10.101 80

But I have to specify all the members in the pool, and if it changes I have to modify the rule too.

Given that the command [active_nodes -list [LB::server pool]] returns the list of the active members' IP, is there a way to cycle the clone?

Something like this could help?

I found out that, I quote: "Any responses to cloned traffic from pool members will be ignored", while I need the response to be considered and forwarded. Do multiple host commands forward the request to all the destinations? Is there any way to do this?
