Nimbostratusremove header in http_response
Hi;
We have a balanced pool that when the F5 connect to it we througt a 403 exception and we want that the response to the server was without headers so we would like to erase the headers in the client side when in the server side we throught a 403 exception.
how can I do it?
Thanks in advanced

semperfiguy_759Hello Maria,
I am not sure which header you would like to remove. What is your goal? Is it to have the client NOT see the 403, but see something else?
Like this:
Request
Client--->BIGIP--->Server
Response
Client <---BIGIP<---Server
sorry page<-iRule<-403
---This iRule should get you started---
when HTTP_RESPONSE {
if { [HTTP::status] == 403 } {
HTTP::redirect "http://www.website.com/sorry.html"
}
}
Hope this helps

Hi
the thing we want to do is that when the Big-IP send a 403 to the client we delete the server BIG-IP header in that message.
Like this:
Request
Client--->BIGIP
Response
Client <---BIGIP

To prevent the insertion of the "Server: BigIP" header in 9.4.2 and higher, you can use 'HTTP::respond 403 noserver content "some HTML" header1_name header1_value' as described in the HTTP::header wiki page (Click here).

I try to do th ething ypu say to my and i don't see the server header delete.
