Hello,

 

After consulting with F5 support, I am told that using a STREAM profile to match anything involving a NULL byte is not possible.

 

 

However, I was told the following:

 

 

"It may be possible to reference the hex data and replace it with the TCP::payload command, but I am not positive that this is possible. The DevCentral community is the best resource for this type of information."

 

 

Does anyone know if this is possible?

 

 

Thanks,
