AltocumulusAPM session.ui.mode values
The APM configuration guide (v11.5.3) lists values 0-6 for UI mode. But I am encountering modes 7 and 9. What are they? And a little more detail would be helpful, rather than "as defined by the HTTP headers". Is there some HTTP standards document that describes these in more detail?
0 - full 1 - miniHTML 2 - iMode 3 - XML 4 - WML 5 - WAP 6 - PocketPC
Thanks,
Stan

I looked around and couldn't immediately find the answer. It would be good to get this fixed in the documentation. Could you open a support ticket and simply ask this question and request that the documentation be fixed?
This session.ui.mode isn't so interesting from an outside perspective because it's used internally by APM to determine what resources/pages to deliver to connecting clients. Most of the time you'll want to use the other variables that have the specific platform or raw user-agent.

UI mode, as determined by HTTP headers. UI mode reflects the protocol that the client used to communicate with the server during APM session establishment and access policy execution. UI mode does not directly map to client type (session.client.type). For example, when BIG-IP Edge Client uses a web browser component to establish a session, the session.ui.mode is set to 0 (Full Browser). Values: 0 - Full Browser 6 - Pocket PC (browser) 7 - Standalone Client (clientless mode, no support for endpoint inspection; not Edge Client) 8 - ActiveSync Client 9 - Mobile Browser (smart phone) 10 - Citrix Receiver
