irule not functioning

Hi Habib,

just noticed, that the ordering of your iRule is little faulty. You have to use the most restrictiv condition before the less restrictive conditions, otherwise then later conditions wouldn't trigger...

when HTTP_REQUEST { 
    set low_hostname [string tolower [HTTP::host]] 
    set low_uri [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] 
    if { ( $low_hostname equals "topsuat" ) and ( $low_uri starts_with "/socket.io" ) } then { 
        pool topsuat-socket-pool 
    } elseif { ( $low_hostname contains "topsstg" ) and ( $low_uri starts_with "/socket.io" ) } then { 
        pool topsstg-socket-pool 
    } elseif { ( $low_hostname equals "topssit" ) and ( $low_uri starts_with "/socket.io" ) } then { 
        pool topssit-socket-pool 
    } elseif { ( $low_hostname equals "topsstrg" ) and ( $low_uri starts_with "/socket.io" ) } then { 
        pool topstrg-socket-pool 
    } elseif { $low_hostname contains "topsfat" } then { 
        pool topsfat-prod-pool 
    } elseif { $low_hostname contains "topsstg" } then { 
        pool topsstg-pool
    } elseif { $low_hostname contains "topssit" } then { 
        pool topssit-http
    } elseif { $low_hostname contains "topstrg" } then { 
        pool topstrg-pool 
}

Note: In addition I would recommend to check the host and pool names. You have "topsuat" (for

/socket.io

/*

contains

equals

Kai,

1. I changed and tried , no luck. Kindly make help me make this irule. I tried the below one as well, but no luck. when HTTP_REQUEST { switch [string tolower [HTTP::host]] { "topssit-http" { if { [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] contains "/socket.io" } { pool topssit-socket-pool } else { pool topssit-http } } "topsstg-pool" { if { [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] contains "/socket.io" } { pool topsstg-socket-pool } else { pool topsstg-pool } } "topstrg-pool" { if { [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] contains "/socket.io" } { pool topstrg-socket-pool } else { pool topstrg-pool } } "topsuat-http" { if { [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] contains "/socket.io" } { pool topsuat-socket-pool } else { pool topsuat-http } } } }

i wonder whether right condition is not triggered or it is but packet is not forwarded correctly.

to check whether condition is triggered correctly, you may put some logging command in the irule. to check whether packet is forwarded properly, you may try tcpdump.

also, just in case you have not seen this.
