Can we uncompress request data?

Hi Taner,

 

 

I don't believe any browser supports sending compressed data in a request. I'm not sure there is a way in HTTP 1.1 for a client to check if a server would support compressed data. Are you testing with a custom client that you control? If so, can you provide a sample request including the headers and payload?

 

 

On a related note, there isn't a way for LTM to decompress response data that is compressed. The best option I've seen for this is to remove the Accept-Encoding request header before sending the request to the pool member. This prevents the server from sending compressed data.
