How to find HOST protocol inside iRule?

Hi Roman,

 

 

You can't tell from just the HTTP headers or payload whether the request was sent via SSL. You can either assume SSL based on the virtual server port [TCP::local_port] or use an iRule to test whether a cipher was used:

Aaron,

 

 

Thank you for your reply. Should I use both approaches to determine for sure whether SSL is used?

 

if TCP::local_port value is 443 AND if {not ([catch {SSL::cipher version} result]) && $result ne "none"}

 

protocol = "https"

 

 

 

Thanks, Roman

 

Hi Roman,

 

 

You don't need to check the port if you use this:

 

 

if {not ([catch {SSL::cipher version} result]) && $result ne "none"}

Got it, thank you
