DESCRIPTION
       You can use the host component to configure a host persistence profile for the BIG-IP(r) system. Host
       persistence uses the HTTP Host header passed in a HTTP request to determine which pool member to pick. Host
       persistence can also be activated from an existing iRule.

       A persistence profile is a profile that enables persistence when you assign the profile to a virtual server.
       Using a persistence profile means that you do not have to write an iRule to implement a type of persistence.
       You can either use the default profile, or create a custom profile based on the default.

EXAMPLES
       list host

       Displays all host persistence profiles.

       create host host_persistence defaults-from host

       Creates a custom host persistence profile named host_persistence that inherits its settings from the default
       host persistence profile.

       mv host /Common/my_host_profile to-folder /Common/my_folder

       Moves a custom host persistence profile named my_host_profile to a folder named my_folder, where my_folder has
       already been created and exists within /Common.

OPTIONS
       app-service
	    Specifies the name of the application service to which the profile belongs. The default value is none.
	    Note: If the strict-updates option is enabled on the application service that owns the object, you cannot
	    modify or delete the profile. Only the application service can modify or delete the profile.

       defaults-from
	    Specifies the existing profile from which the system imports settings for the new profile. The default
	    value is host, the system default host persistence profile.

       description
	    User defined description.

       match-across-pools
	    Specifies, when enabled, that the system can use any pool that contains this persistence record. The
	    default value is disabled.

       match-across-services
	    Specifies, when enabled, that all persistent connections from a client IP address, which go to the same
	    virtual IP address, also go to the same node. The default value is disabled.

       match-across-virtuals
	    Specifies, when enabled, that all persistent connections from the same client IP address go to the same
	    node. The default value is disabled.

       mirror
	    Specifies whether the system mirrors persistence records to the high-availability peer. The default value
	    is disabled.

       name Specifies a unique name for the component. This option is required for the commands create, delete, and
	    modify.

       override-connection-limit
	    Specifies, when enabled, that the pool member connection limits are not enforced for persisted clients.
	    Per-virtual connection limits remain hard limits and are not disabled. The default value is disabled.

       partition
	    Displays the administrative partition within which the component resides.

       regex
	    Displays the items that match the regular expression. The regular expression must be preceded by an at
	    sign (@[regular expression]) to indicate that the identifier is a regular expression. See help regex for
	    a description of regular expression syntax.

       timeout
	    Specifies the duration of the persistence entries. The default value is 180 seconds.

       to-folder
	    host persistence profiles can be moved to any folder under /Common, but configuration dependencies may
	    restrict moving the profile out of /Common.
