Hey Citizen,

 

 

The only (remote) option I could think of was the HTTP profile option for 'Header to Insert'. But the help notes don't make it look good:

 

 

"Specifies a string that the system inserts as a header in an HTTP request. If the header exists already, the system does not replace it."

 

 

The HTTP class object doesn't allow you to modify a request.

 

 

I think you're stuck with an iRule if you want to rewrite an existing header with a customer header's value...
