no compress profile

Hello;

 

We want F5 to compress the traffic to a internal portal. However we want it not to compress a URL like "http://XXXX/abcd/NoCompress/*". We don't want to compress anything under "NoCompress".

 

We were using netscaler and this was easy with it. How can i do this with F5 (version 10.1), any idea?

    Hi There is a whitelist and a blacklist option in the HTTP profile section for compression for URIs. I imagine this would be the the simplest option. You can get more details from the LTM config guide for your version on AskF5.com.

     

     

    You could also do this with an iRule using COMPRESS::disable (Click here) for specific URIs.
