Is there any update on this? The initial iRule solution wasn't really a functional solution for us as it simply disables ASM for IP's that aren't in the list.

 

 

Basically, the situation I have is that I'm learning on web scraping, and have seen a few addresses I want to block, but I don't know if I've got appropriate thresholds, so I don't want to block scraping, since I don't want to block valid traffic. So in the interim, I'd like to be able to simply block all traffic from a specific IP. All the traffic not from these specific IP's should STILL be passed through ASM.

 

 

Any other thoughts? I was thinking this may be done on LTM also with the appropriate iRule.

 

 

Thanks!
