BIGIP 4.5 to 9.3.1 iRule Conversion

Duh....I forgot about "contains one of operator" is for classes.

 

 

Then the code would be re-written as

 

 

 
 class eligibility { 
  "somethingsomething" 
 } 
  
 class images { 
    ".jpg" 
    ".gif" 
  } 
  
  
  when HTTP_REQUEST  {  
      if {[IP::addr[IP::client_addr] equals 10.1.1.1] } {  
  if { [matchclass [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] contains $::eligibility] } {  
                    pool POOL_230_2  
               } else {  
        pool POOL_230_1  
  }  
       } elseif {[IP::add [IP::client_addr] eq 10.1.1.8] } {  
             pool POOL_230_ALL  
       } else {  
              switch [HTTP::method] {  
                "GET" { log local0. "GET method used" }  
                "POST" { log local0. "POST method used"}  
                default { log local0. "Unexpected method used" }  
              }  
              if { [matchclass [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] contains $::eligibility ]}  {  
                        pool POOL_230_2  
         log local0. "Eligibility request made."  
  }  elseif { [matchclass [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] ends_with $::images ]}  {  
       pool POOL_230_ALL  
       log local0. "Image request Made"  
  } else { 
               pool pool_230_1  
       log local0. "Generic Request Made"  
  }  
        }  
      }  
  }  
 

 

 

I hope this helps

Hi Battman,

 

 

I just checked the Class MemberEligibility configuration and found as....

 

 

Class MemberEligibility > ClassType: String > class members > /fauxpro (and somemore with /fauxpro/false etc etc)

 

 

Could you please help me in converting the rule exactly according to this

Hi Sumod,

You are on the right track of how to define a class on the F5.

Here is what the class would look like on the configuration file where the class is a string.

 
 class eligibility {  
   "/fauxpro" 
   "/fauxpro/false/"  
  }

Hello Battman,

 

 

I am getting the following error

 

 

line 1: [undefined procedure: class] [class eligibility

 

line 24: [braces are required around the expression] [when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

line 51: [command is not valid in the current scope] [}]

 

 

Please help

I think there is an extra brace at the end of the code

 

 

 
 when HTTP_REQUEST  {   
     if {[IP::addr[IP::client_addr] equals 10.1.1.1] } {   
 if { [matchclass [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] contains $::eligibility] } {   
         pool POOL_230_2   
         } else {   
        pool POOL_230_1   
     }   
      } elseif {[IP::add [IP::client_addr] eq 10.1.1.8] } {   
            pool POOL_230_ALL   
      } else {   
             switch [HTTP::method] {   
               "GET" { log local0. "GET method used" }   
               "POST" { log local0. "POST method used"}   
               default { log local0. "Unexpected method used" }   
             }   
             if { [matchclass [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] contains $::eligibility ]} {   
                 pool POOL_230_2   
        log local0. "Eligibility request made."   
 } elseif { [matchclass [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] ends_with $::images ]} {   
      pool POOL_230_ALL   
      log local0. "Image request Made"   
 } else {  
             pool pool_230_1   
      log local0. "Generic Request Made"   
 }   
       }   
     }

Hello Battman,

 

 

No luck still its giving me error.

 

I doubt that its becuase of class

 

I removed the class option and tried still i am getting error.

 

Please help

Did you create the CLASS object called eligibility?

 

 

Bhattman

from where i can create theat CLASS object ?

Hi Sumond,

 

Here is link to some instructions about creating data groups

 

 

https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/solutions/public/6000/900/sol6911.html

 

 

These are not specific instructions for your case, but it shows you how to create Datagroup containing string information (which is URL info in your case)

 

 

I hope this helps
