NimbostratusHTTP Analytics Profile - Collect Domain Names
Hi,
I want to analyze the traffic sent to a virtual server using a HTTP Analytics Profile. This server hosts multiple webpages and I need to differentiate between those services. Unfortunately the URL attribute includes only the part after the hostname. Is there a way to include the hostname (or the Host Header) in the analytics generated by HTTP Analytics Profiles?
Thanks.
Elias
Hi auernige ,
This option doesn’t exist in http analytics profile.
I think you can get your statistics based on hostnames from pool/or pool-members statistics as I think you are using irule or LTM policy to redirect traffic based on hostnames.
or I think it would be doable by using iRule to count and return hostnames hits statistics via single virtual server.
Regards.

Hey Leslie_Hubertus ,
Hard to imagine that an iRule can be used to convince the Devs of AVR, that a valid URL contains at least a Protocol, HOST-Name and URI strings. Somehow they missed this fact and anylyzing just URI strings while calling them "URLs"...
But you never know... maybe JRahm knows how to write such an iRule?
Cheers, Kai
auernigeHi,
thank you for your quick response. I have now an iRule collecting the required information and logging it to a custom logfile (https://community.f5.com/t5/technical-articles/writing-to-and-rotating-custom-log-files/ta-p/278468). This way I can analyze the statistics.
