CirrostratusIrule to increase idle timeout for particular URL and URI
Hi All ,
User have a requirement that if two host header are matched for ex. abc.com and cdf.com with URI /poodle . Then Idle timeout should be set to 86400 seconds . Bu default it is 300 sec in tcp-lan-optimized profile .
I created a irule with help of irule/events in devcentral , please let me know if this will work logically :
when HTTP_REQUEST {
if { (([HTTP::host] == "abc.com") or ([HTTP::host] == "cdf.com")) and ([HTTP::uri] ==
"/poodle") } {
IP::idle_timeout 86400
set serverside_idle_timeout 1
} }
when SERVER_CONNECTED {
if {$serverside_idle_timeout} {
IP::idle_timeout 86400
}
}
Thanks

it looks okay to me.
by the way, i think it may be better to use "equals" instead of "==" for string comparison.
SynACk_128568Thanks but i see snat2vip also in configuration will that idle timeout in SNAT affect this Irule ?- nitass_89166i understand this timeout is applied to traffic matching virtual server. one more thing i forgot. serverside_idle_timeout variable should also be initiated. otherwise, traffic that does not match if-condition in HTTP_REQUEST will cause no such variable tcl error in SERVER_CONNECTED.
