cookie expire

Hi. We'd like to change the expiration date of a Cookie when a client comes in with a certain Useragent-string. Normally our users just get the default Cookie which expires after the session. ...

Is it a cookie being set by LTM or by the web application? If the latter, is it a web app behind the VIP this iRule is added to? The iRule would only take effect once it's been added to the VIP and only affect the cookies being set after the iRule is added.

 

 

If the cookie has already been set with no expiry time, I'm not sure how you'd have to set a new cookie to expire if the previous time it was set without an expiry time. For telling the client to delete cookies the name, value and path must match the previously set cookie.
