ASM allowed methods

ASM uses this definition when you configure an application flow model. It allows you to configure different parameters that are allowed on POST request VS. GET request (to the same URL). In this case, request using the HEAD method will be matched against the definition of the GET request (to a specific URL).

 

BTW - By default ASM allows only GET, POST and HEAD. ASM admin can add additional methods (in your case someone added the PUT method)

Hi John,

 

 

As Ido said, this setting means that HEAD requests are considered as GETs when validating the request method (and flows if you have flows defined in the policy). Feel free to email or call me if you have questions on this.
