ASM Policy
Hi Brandon, I think this regex will work for what you're trying to do:
/abt/color/blue(/|$)(.*)
This should match /abt/color/blue and /abt/color/blue/ and /abt/color/blue/and/red/and/whatever but not /abt/color/blueandredandwatever.

Wait, since when does ASM support regex for URLs? Last I checked it was limited to a basic wildcard syntax.

Good call gersbah, in looking into the ASM-specific support for URL, regex is indeed not supported.
Brandon I removed my answer as a solution. That said, you might investigate using an iRule (shown below) or a local traffic policy to do the same...you could inspect the URL in the HTTP_REQUEST event and check your URL with regex, or simplify to just test your URL string with something like:if { ( [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] eq "/abt/color/blue" ) || ( [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] starts_with "/abt/color/blue/" ) } { # do allowed stuff here... else { # take corrective action here, like raise an ASM violation }
Note that if you have other approved URLs with starting patterns, you'd need to handle that logic as well, this is specific to this use case.
