AltostratusHTTP::cookie insert name 1cookie value 2 path "/" domain $domain
Hi,dear irule
when HTTP::request
{set domain [domain [HTTP::host] 2]}
when HTTP::response
{
HTTP::cookie insert name 1_cookie value "2" path "/" domain $domain
}
with this irule,we suppose hostname is www.srwd18.com
I send request to VIP
and the situation is:
first :broswer received cookie 1_cookie from bigip and domain is "www.srwd18.com"(why isn't is srwd18.com)
second:I continue to open page in broswer,it send this 1_cookie to vip now with domain ".srwd18.com"
why?
I am confused
I check this via http fox on firefox

Hi Jucao,
The domain on cookies should start with a leading period. Can you change this line and retest:
set domain ".[domain [HTTP::host] 2]"

Robert_47833Hi,thanks,Aaron
even I change it to .[domain [HTTP::host]2]
the phenomenon is the same as before
receive cookie with domain www.srwd18.com
then send cookie with domain .srwd18.com- Kevin_Davies_40
Nacreous
Just some basic checks, clear browser cookies between tests or it will re-present a cookie from before. In the incoming response from the F5 is it presenting one 1_cookie or two. If you have a persistence profile assigned to the VIP you may be doubling up on cookies.Kevin (Jarvil)
- Robert_47833Hi,Kevin
I have cleared the cookie
it is the same ,no persistence profile - hoolioCan you try testing with curl on LTM to see if the cookie is being set correctly? You can use something like this:
curl -v http://1.1.1.1/file.ext -H "Host: www.example.com"
You can check the Set-Cookie header in the response to see if the cookie is being set. If that works, then I'd try opening a case with F5 Support and ask them to review your HttpFox logs.
Aaron - Robert_47833Hi,Aaron
BTW:can you tell me how to check cookie which is send via curl command
I want to check if I receive "< Set-Cookie: BigipABurl_cookie=2;path=/;domain=srwd18.com;",which cookie will be sent(this cookie is session based)
yes,via curl,if I set domain ".[domain [HTTP::host] 2]",it will receive "< Set-Cookie: BigipABurl_cookie=2;path=/;domain=.srwd18.com;"
if I set domain "[domain [HTTP::host] 2]" ,it will receive "< Set-Cookie: BigipABurl_cookie=2;path=/;domain=srwd18.com;"
it seems there are some problem in http fox - Robert_47833I want to know whether it affect the cookie which is sent,if both of them are" .srwd18.com",it is ok
- Robert_47833OK,the problem is when you check cookie tab on http fox of Firefox,you will see www.srwd18.com,but in the“header” tab,it is still "srwd18.com " or ".srwd18.com"
I want to know whether "srwd18.com" affect the fuction of this cookie,it seems it can send this cookie to xxx.srwd18.com - Robert_47833Hi,anybody here?
