HTTP Header Reading with iRule?
Hi all!
We're trying to load balance a system with persistence enabled so that users don't get kicked out mid session if their IP changes. To do this, we're looking at HTTP Headers and what we can do with them.
We don't want to terminate SSL at the F5, but just look at the HTTP Header within the SSL request and ensure it persists to the same back-end server based off of a value in the header.
We have had a look at iRules, and believe this may be our route to get the above working. I currently have a HTTPS Virtual server configured that load balances to 2 servers, however if I enable any persistence it times out, though this is just with default values.
Can you advise how we can get the above working, or if we can?
Thanks!
