LTM policies only works with http profile?
Hi all, Today I found a limit when needed the following config:
A tcp-only service on one VS which does listen to any.
About 60 tcp-only listener ports which should be load balanced to two backends. We need to monitor each of the tcp-ports of the backends, therefore we need about 60 pools for this.I created the following objects:
1 VS ANY TCP listener
60 pools, one for each tcp listener with two backend members. 1 LTM policy with 60 rules like the following:rule_AQ {
actions {
0 {
forward
select
pool /Common/pool_AQ_8137
}
}
conditions {
0 {
tcp
port
values { 8137 }
}
}
}
When I try to add the LTM policy to the VS I get the error:
010716d9:3: Virtual server /Common/AQ-domain.com_any requires a profile of type http for ltm policy /Common/pol_AQ_8137.
Since this config would be used as a tcp-only service, I cannot add a http profile to the VS.
So are LTM policies only usable for HTTP traffic?
Thanks, Peter
