Block usernames and IP addresses

Hi

 

 

In ASM... Does anyone know if it is possible to block sessions by user name and/or IP address to a Web application?

 

 

For example, blocking restricted user names or know IP's...

    Some options:

     

    - Create a signature catching the bad values for the parameter username

     

    - Use an iRule to identify the problematic source IP and drop the request (or do with it as you wish)

     

    Thanks,
