its best to give people the benefit of the doubt.

Based on what you're describing, this should work. The second line of your irule has the "contains" modifier. This will find "/wfc" no matter where it's in the uri. If that's not your intention, you can also use "starts_with" or "ends_with" instead of "contains"
