Peer name

Each connection is assigned a peer name. This peer name must be set via the GENERICMESSAGE::peer name iRule command. Once the peer name has been sent, the connection is able to receive and forward messages.
The peer name is used to add a dynamic route to the route table. It is also used to set the source address of each message.
