Hello.

 

You can use this approach replacing those global variables by table variables (for being CMP compatible).

https://devcentral.f5.com/s/articles/http-session-limit-1

https://clouddocs.f5.com/api/irules/table.html

 

The basic idea is to increase the counter value when HTTP_REQUEST is executed and decrease the same variable when HTTP_RESPONSE_RELEASE is executed.

 

Regards,

Dario.
