Match Rules
6. Use the Expression Editor to build your match expression. Refer to"Match Rule Expression Examples" on
page 328 for details on using this feature.
7. Use the Server Pool drop down list to select a Server Pool to direct Layer 7 traffic if it complies with the
match rule conditions specified. Refer to "Managing Server Pools" on page 230 for instructions on
configuring Server Pools.
8. Configure the other parameters for the Match Rule as necessary. The following table describes each of
the selections. Changing these parameters will override the cluster setting.
Expression
Refer to "Match Rule Expression Notes" on page 329.
Next Match Rule
The Next Match Rule field determines the order of processing. For example, if
you were to configure a Match Rule 2 with a Next Match Rule parameter of
Match Rule 1, it would be place before Match Rule 1 in the order of processing.
Server Pool
The Server Pool field determines the server pool to which a match rule applies
its specified conditions and parameters.
Responder
The Responderfield allows you to specify an automatic responder for client
requests that match this rule when none of the servers selected in the rule are
available. The responder must already be configured. For a description of
responders as well as examples of using responders in match rules, see
"Adding a Responder" on page 348.
Spoof
Spoofcauses Equalizer to spoof the client IP address when Equalizer routes a
request to a server in a virtual cluster; that is, the IP address of the client is sent
to the server, not the IP address of the Equalizer. This option is on by default. If
you disable this option, the server receiving the request will see the Equalizer’s
address as the client address because the TCP connection to the client is
terminated when the request is routed. When spoof is enabled, the server pool
in the cluster must use the Equalizer as the default gateway for routing.
Abort Server
By default, when a client closes a connection, Equalizer waits for a response
from the server before closing the server connection. If this flag is enabled,
Equalizer will not wait for a response before closing the connection to the server;
instead it sends a TCP RST (reset) to the server when the client closes the
