I was looking for answers to another problem I have when I came accross a command that I think could be used to solve my problem. I would like to get your inputs on this. The command is AUTH::response_data it is only available in 9.4.0. The wiki entry is here http://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/default.aspx/iRules/AUTH__response_data.html

Thanks,
