Blocking 2 URLs and Allowing 1 URL

muzammil,

Loads of examples of this type of irule on DC.

How about something like this:

when HTTP_REQUEST {
   switch [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] {
   "/cc_page" -
   "/" { drop }
   }
} 

This would inherently allow test_page uri.

Or you may want to redirect to test_page thus:

when HTTP_REQUEST {
   switch [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] {
   "/cc_page" -
   "/" { HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]/test_page" }
   }
} 

This probably depends on what other URIs you have and what you want to do with them. Hope this is a good starting point though.

Hope this helps,

muzammil,

 

 

That post didn't quite come out as expected. Here are my two options:

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

switch [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] {

 

"/cc_page" -

 

"/" { drop }

 

}

 

}

 

 

This would inherently allow test_page.

 

 

Or something friendlier perhaps:

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

switch [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] {

 

"/cc_page" -

 

"/" { HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]/test_page" }

 

}

 

}

Dear Nathan,

 

 

Below iRule which was suggested by you works well.

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

switch [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] {

 

"/cc_page" -

 

"/" { drop }

 

}

 

}

 

 

Is there any way to allow only "/test_page" and block all "/*" ?

How about something with there following:

 

 

if { [HTTP::uri] ne "/test_page" } {

 

drop

 

}

You could always use a data group too and do a class match on the contents of this in an irule. This would be useful if you wanted to add further allowed URIs.

when HTTP_REQUEST {
  if { [class match [HTTP::uri] ne "allowed_uris"] } {
    drop
  }
} 

I think in small numbers performance of class match vs switch/if isn't much of a concern but it's another option nonetheless.

Hope this helps,
