Reference an http profile in iRule

Has anyone had any success with using a single VS with multiple HTTP profiles, and calling the various HTTP profiles from an iRule? I would like to do this so I can maintain different "cache" profiles based on strings in the URI. Any assistance much appreciated.

 

 

Thanks

    I don't think there is a command that would allow you to specify an HTTP profile from a rule. You could use the CACHE:: commands to change the caching options though.

    those are very nice examples, but not quite what I am looking for. I basically have a single VS, and the app servers behind it serve different portals. We are trying to be able to cache for all portals, but want to ensure that cust a does not see cust b's content..the concern comes from the developers as the application engine serves all customers, but each customer has different data. I need to be able to cache for performance reasons, but also need to be able to ensure the above mentioned does not happen.
