Multi-Conditional iRule using Basic Auth and 9.4.3

So, things ended up not working too well for me. There were a couple issues. The first was that the client was sending a base64 encoded value for userid and password in the Authorization header, which my rule above doesn't seem to account to for. Do I need to decode this value first prior to doing the binary scan or am I just better off with storing the base64 value in the data group?

 

 

The second problem is probably due to me missing an else somewhere but both unauthenticated AND authenticated requests were working fine when I tested this tonight. Requests lacking an Authorization header should have been rejected with a 401 status code.

 

 

If anyone has some time to spare, can you give me some pointers to help me figure this out? With the poor testing results with authentication, we didn't even get around to testing the other conditions.
