Once a rule has been created, it can be associated to a Virtual Service. To do this, follow the steps below:

  1. Log in to the relevant LoadMaster WUI.
  2. In the main menu, select Virtual Services and View/Modify Services.

  3. Click Modify on the relevant Virtual Service.
  4. Expand the Advanced Properties section.

  5. Click Show Header Rules.

    Response Rules: These are modifications to the server headers going back to the client or the URL.

    Request Rules: These are modifications to the client headers going to the server.

    Here, either Request Rules or Response Rules can be added.

    If any header modification rules exist for this LoadMaster, they will be visible here.

  6. Select the relevant rule in the relevant section and click Add .

If there is more than one rule in a section, the priority at which a rule is applied can be adjusted using the Promote button.

In LoadMaster firmware 7.2.52 and above, it is easier to reorder the priority of rules in a Virtual Service - there is a move option that allows you to specify the position to move the rule to.
