IRule to Block a particular URL but allow everything else

Hi,

 

wondering if you can help me with an Irule that basically looks at the FQDN e.g. test.abc.com and if the URL matches e.g. /absauth/service* that rquest is blocked. but everything else is allowed.

 

I will really appreciate your help with this.

    Hi Qasim,

    Can you try this iRule?

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
	if { ([HTTP::host] equals "test.abc.com") && ([string tolower [HTTP::uri]] starts_with "/absauth/service") } {
		reject
	}
}

      Hi Eaa,

       

      thanks for your swift response but if I want to add another line for example everything else should be redirected to pool : abc123.

       

      how would that look like?

       

      Regards,

      Qasim

        If you use pool_abc123 as default pool, you don't need else statement.

        If you don't have default pool, you can use this iRule:

        when HTTP_REQUEST {
	if { ([HTTP::host] equals "test.abc.com") && ([string tolower [HTTP::uri]] starts_with "/absauth/service") } {
		reject
	} else  {
		pool abc123
	}
}

    Hi Enes,

     

    I posted this question a while ago but never received a proper response but wondering if you can help me with the following:

     

     

    I want to publish 4 services externally (internet) and internally (LAN/WAN) and want to have a cross DC failover but I have a limited number of public IP addresses so would like use a single VS. Wondering, how can I go about this? I want all services to fail dynamically if one of the services have failed?

    can anyone help please?

     

    Thanks.
