NimbostratusRadius and HTTP Header insertion
Hi,
hard question: I have just to understand if it can be done with BIGIP and iRules.
What I need is to add a specific HTTP header to all the HTTP sessions coming from a specific IP address;...
The best way I can think of would be to forward the request from one BIG-IP to the other BIG-IP. You would need a mechanism to know whether to forward to the next BIG-IP or onto the real server.
I would handle this by setting up an extra virtual to be used as the target from another BIG-IP. You could then know whether to forward to the other BIG-IP or on to the real server based on the destination address.
Of course, this will add a little bit of latency as your routing the requests through additional devices, but that seems trivial compared to the added capability.
Hope that helps.
