Invalid Nonce in APM and how to reproduce

We edit test in an APM policy for "Invalid Nonce" because it has a different meaning to some people. We would like to test it and make sure it is displaying correctly (political reasons) and I cannot find a way to reproduce this error. any thoughts?

      Very interesting question. Never thought about that the word "Nonce" has a different meaning outside of the crypto-world. Made my day... ;-)

       

      Cheers, Kai

    Hi  

    Could you please share how you did to reproduce the issue ?

    BUG ID 738148 says : 

    This can sometimes be the symptom of the 'retry-after-reset' scenario. In this scenario, there is an unrelated failure in the access policy evaluation resulting in a reset being sent to the client....

    What I don't understand is : who is sending the reset ? the BIG-IP or another equipment between the BIGIP and the Client. and If it is the latest response, is the reset only sent to the client or is it sent to the client and the BigIP ?

    this would really help me,

    Many thanks

      the link that was provided was just a way to reproduce the error message, not the issue itself.

       

      i think you better start a new question Karim or contact support. bugs like this are tricky to get worked out on a forum.
