F5 CNF/SPK/BNK and etc. support for Custom URL classifications/apps/IPS signatures?
While I played with CNF/SPK/BNK and etc. I didn't see anything in the docks about this https://clouddocs.f5.com/cnfs/robin/latest/
I think it is important feature as if a URL is wrongly classified by Brightcloud DB to be able to add the url to custom URL category as for example to allow it. As shown in https://clouddocs.f5.com/cnfs/aon/latest/cnf-pe-url-categorization.html I think this is somewhere hidden as there is option called "customdb" , so maybe the downloader pod can be configured to pull the custom URL classification. As the irules for CNF do not support "HTTP_REQUEST" and "HTTP_RESPONSE" events as mentioned in https://clouddocs.f5.com/cnfs/openshift/latest/cnf-irule-crd.html this seems important.
Outside of that Custom IPS signatures like for the normal AFM will be nice as there is IPS pod I think like the IP intelligence it could connect to external feed list that has the custom signatures (the same for the URL category) https://clouddocs.f5.com/cnfs/robin/latest/cnf-ipi-feedlist-crd.html
For the custom apps that PEM uses with iRules ( https://techdocs.f5.com/en-us/bigip-14-1-0/big-ip-policy-enforcement-manager-implementations-14-1-0/creating-custom-classifications.html ) I am just mentioning this but I see less use cases than what I see with custom URL categories and custom IPS signatures.
I did write to cnfdocs@f5.com as mentioned in the web documents. Hope they see it and as mentioned ""To provide feedback and help improve this document, please email us at cnfdocs@f5.com. "" 🙂
