Why did fast l4 profile auto created instead of http profile in tmsh?

I tried creating virtual server in tmsh.I tried adding http profile as per requirement[profiles add { http}].when I listed after the creation.I can see it is fastl4 created.When I did same on GUI it is standard VS and http with tcp as L4.this occured because VS is taken as fastL4 VS by default in tmsh.

 

Then I have modified virtual server creation string as [profiles replace-al-with [http{context all}].Then is shown as http context all & tcp context all when I listed it.So for creation of standard virtual server under http profile,does [http{context all}] is a mandate thing?

    Hi,

     

    You need to add explicitly a tcp profile when using tmsh if you want a standard VS whereas it's done by default for you while using the GUI.

     

    Example:

     

    tmsh create ltm virtual vs_demo destination 1.2.3.4:80 profiles add { tcp http }

      Hi salim,

       

      Thank you so much for your input.I tried adding add { http tcp } but still the same fastl4 profile shown there.hence I replaced with "profiles replace-all-with {http[context all]}".then it is the same as it looks in GUI.

       

      will it make any diff i traffic handling?

       

      Thanks Sai
