IRULE to block URI after a specific date

I have managed to get the date check working and now 'expired' hosts get sent to a notfound page:

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

 

set debug 1

 

set datecheck CLASS_DATE_CHECK

 

set today [clock format [clock seconds] -format {%Y%m%d} ]

 

set expiry_date [class match -value [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] starts_with $datecheck]

 

set uriexpired 0

 

 

if {($expiry_date < $today)} {

 

set uriexpired 1

 

}

 

 

 

if {($uriexpired equals "1") and ([HTTP::uri] equals [class match -name [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] starts_with $datecheck])} {

 

if {$debug > 0} {

 

log local0. "uri=[HTTP::uri] and Classmatch=[class match -name [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] starts_with $datecheck]"

 

}

 

HTTP::respond 302 noserver Location "http://www.test.com/notfound"

 

 

 

Still looking at the URI part though. My customer wants to publish a random string before the actual 'real' uri.

 

 

i.e. http://www.test.com/123456789/testsite1

 

 

I need to remove the /123456789 before passing to pool and then add it back in before responding to clients.

 

As the string will be randomly generated I cannot use a string replace.

 

I was looking at stream profile's too but not sure which option would work best?

 

Any thoughts?
