Here problem is with

(Hash). Its not a fault of your iRule or even F5 policy, its more of the underlying HTTP standard. That is the reason F5 policy or iRule will not allow you to save.

In the URI world the Hash-Sign () is called a "Fragment" and is completely suppressed from sending by every browser.

In-fact, everything after the Hash-Sign never initiate connection and therefor never reaches your F5.
