Bypass APM for specific User Agent

        Dears,

        We want to bypass the Access Policy based on User Agent.

        Virtual Server has a default Pool and the Virtual Policy Editor is as follows.

        Start >> Logon >> AD >> SSO Mapping >> Allow

        When the application is accessed by Browser, it will provide the Logon page and the credentials are authenticated against AD,  it will take you to the default pool with the SSO.

        However, when the same application is accessed by Microsoft Project (Project Web App), its not working.
        So, we have used the below irules to bypass the Access Policy and forward the traffic directly to the pool members.

        when HTTP_REQUEST {
          switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::header User-Agent]] {
            "*office*" -
            "*microsoft*" {
            log local0. "Microsoft Project user agent :[HTTP::header User-Agent]"
            ACCESS::disable
            } default { 
            ACCESS::enable } 
          }
          }

    We also tried using a session variable on the VPE stating that if the user agent contains office, Fallback to Allow..

We need to bypass the Access policy as its not gonna work when its enabled and that too only if the request is coming from Project Web App.
