APM control URI

I would like to create an irules that allows me to control at the first opening of a session that the URI starts with a string / ABCDE / and after it redesigns the flow to the pool.the problem when I run the irules the content of the page does not download completely

when ACCESS_POLICY_AGENT_EVENT {

        if { [ACCESS::policy agent_id] eq "CONTROL" } {


            set uri1 [ACCESS::session data get session.server.landinguri]



             get hash from URI 
            if { $uri1 starts_with "/HABCD/" } {
                ACCESS::session data set session.custom.control_hash 1
            } else {
                ACCESS::session data set session.custom.control_hash 0
            }
        }

}

    Hi,

     

    there are 2 preferred solution :

     

    • use an irule in ACCESS_SESSION_STARTED event instead of ACCESS_POLICY_AGENT_EVENT.

       

      ACCESS_SESSION_STARTED is executed at the beginning of the session.

       

      Here is an example of how to filter on landinguri in this event.
    • configure a variable assign in VPE.

       

      Here are examples of how to write variable assign expressions.

    but the code you posted may not cause incomplete page.

     

    you can try this variable assign:

     

    session.custom.control_hash

     

    expr {[mcget {session.server.landinguri}] starts_with "/HABCD/"}
