Forward POST when APM Session closed

I am using APM to authenticate users when connect to Web Server. On the Web Server, when i click on the Logout, a POST request is generated and sent to the server. To Logout the APM Session, i am looking for a string in the URL (/jazz/logout/) and then close the session. The problem i have is that the POST does not reach the Web SErver and the session stay open on the Web Server which consume resources. How can i forward the POST request to the server and at the same time close the connection on the APM?

    Hi,

    you can try this irule:

    when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
    set disconnect 0
}

when ACCESS_ACL_ALLOWED {
    if { [HTTP::uri] equals "/jazz/logout/ } {
        set disconnect 1
    }
}

when HTTP_RESPONSE {
    if {$disconnect} {
        HTTP::respond 302 noserver Location "/vdesk/hangup.php3" Connection Close
    }
}
