Serving wpad.dat with F5?

 

 

 

Or you could answer all requests to the VIP with the wpad.dat file content:

 

 

 

 

 

You are genius!

 

 

The global rule seems best, as I don't need to serve anything more on that VIP, but wpad.dat, so even aliases are not needed, so I inserted the iRule, activated it to VIP, without pools:

 

 

 

 

  
  when HTTP_REQUEST {  
   Send the wpad.dat content  
  HTTP::respond 200 content {\  
  function FindProxyForURL(url, host) {\  
      if(shExpMatch(host, "*[^0123456789.]*") == false) \  
          if(       isInNet(host, "127.0.0.0", "255.0.0.0") \  
              || isInNet(host, "172.17.0.0", "255.255.0.0") \  
              || isInNet(host, "172.18.0.0", "255.255.0.0") \  
          ) \  
              return "DIRECT"; \  
          else \  
              return "PROXY proxy.polsise:8080; DIRECT"; \  
      else \  
          if(       isPlainHostName(host) \  
              || shExpMatch(host, "*.internal") \  
              || shExpMatch(host, "*.testing") \  
          ) \  
              return "DIRECT"; \  
          else \  
              return "PROXY proxygateway.internal:8080; DIRECT";}  
  }  
  }  
    
  

 

 

I can retrieve the code from wpad VIP, however, it doesn't work for browser, looking the result with browser I did found the newline mark in code - isPlainHostName(host) \ so is something in code missing?
