Using keepalives to failover on a 500 error

[dorifice]

Does anyone know if it is possible to have an http keepalive fail if it receives a 500 error from a specific URL?

Any help would be appreiciated.

Thanks in advance

Are you talking about a CSS or another device ?

For the CSS, if you use an HTTP keepalive, the keepalive will only succeed if the response is HTTP 200 OK.

So, by default the keepalive will fail when receiving the response HTTP 500.

This should be the same for the CSM.

That's what I thought but I had to make sure I didn't miss something.

BTW - the equip is a CSS11000.

Thanks for the reply
