A python package for region based abtesting.

patch the f5-sdk after install f5-sdk: replace the pool.py with f5sdk_pool_patch.py

2 configure files need for the initialization.

ip2region.conf, input IP address to region mapping, here is an example:
region1 10.0.0.0/24
region1 10.10.2.0/24
region2 10.20.2.0/24
region2 10.30.0.0/24
region3 10.40.2.0/24
region3 10.50.2.0/24

irules_tmp.conf, an irules for F5 BIG-IP to distribute traffic to B pool:
# Replace ab_demo with the actual name of the virtual server

when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
	set debug 1
	set vs_name_dg_ip2region ab_demo_dg_ip2region
	set vs_name_dg_region2b ab_demo_dg_region2b
	set vs_name_pool_b ab_demo_pool_b

	set region_name [class lookup [IP::client_addr] $vs_name_dg_ip2region ]
	if {$debug} {
		log local0. "Client [IP::client_addr] accepted from $region_name, will be assigned to $vs_name_pool_b"
	}
	if { [class match $region_name equals $vs_name_dg_region2b]} {
		pool $vs_name_pool_b
		if {$debug} {
			log local0. "region $region_name is assigned to $vs_name_pool_b"
		}
	}
}
