Thanks David and Mice, it's too bad this is no longer supported. Is this something that is (or could be) on the roadmap for future development? Seems this would be a much wanted feature for small and/or test environments where the cost of netscalers is prohibitive and the complexity of an advanced zone isn't needed. Thanks
