Hi ,

 

No it doesn't have to be human readable form. But the irule needs determine where to find the hex numbers in the packet so it can store it and use it as part of Universal Persistance much like in JSESSION examples you have seen.

 

 

Can you tell us if it's contained within http header? If it is, what is the name of the header.

 

 

Thanks,
