Rule parameters

Load Balancer has a rule plugin that allows it to manage the request based in the address (and if you use HTTP protocol, based in the uri of the request). To configure this feature, you have a directive called rule_plugin. This directive has the following parameters:

Option Description
filename this is the path to the plugin (module), that does the rule function inside the Load Balancer. Also you can specify the plugin?s filename only (without path) if you have the module installed in the same directory that Load Balancer.
name This is the symbolic name of the rule plugin, used to manage the specific configuration directives that follows this directive. Its a good idea that this name makes reference to the plugin (e.g. if the plugin is called rule_generic.so, the name should be rule_generic, for clarity).

Sample


  <rule_plugin 
         filename="ruleplugin_generic.so" 
         name="rules_generic" 
  />

You can found plugin specific details & configuration directives for the generic & http rule plugin here.
