Order of cookies

Hi EduardoSousa,

you somehow did not mention in which direction you want to reverse the cookie order. From BIG-IP to browser, or from BIG-IP to backend server. Hence I presumed you want to reverse the order from BIG-IP to backend server.

Here is my iRule:

 

when HTTP_REQUEST_RELEASE {
    # Remove Cookie by name
     HTTP::cookie remove "BIGCookie"
     # Reverse order of Cookies
     if { [HTTP::header exists Cookie] } {
        set cookie_rev {}
        set values [split " [HTTP::header Cookie]" ";"]
        set i [llength $values]
        while {$i} {lappend cookie_rev [lindex $values [incr i -1]]}
        set cookie_fini [join $cookie_rev ";"]
        HTTP::header replace Cookie "$cookie_fini"
        unset cookie_fini
        unset cookie_rev
    }
}

 

Browser to BIG-IP:

BIG-IP to backend server
BIGCookie is removed, order is reversed.

Does this solve your issue?

Note: The order of cookies usually should not be an issue. In my opinion reversing the order is not required. Maybe you can explain us, why you have this requirement?
