Set HTTP version

Hi,

I need to set HTTP version on a service, forcing request and response from 1.0 to 1.1.

I tried with this command on the irule:

when HTTP_REQUEST {
HTTP::version "1.1"
}

but doesn't work. Anyone has a suggestion, please?

Thanks a lot

    romolo82 You might try the following to see if it resolves your issue.

    when HTTP_REQUEST priority 500 {
    HTTP::version "1.1"
}

when HTTP_RESPONSE priority 500 {
    HTTP::version "1.1"
}

     What are you using to validate that the HTTP request has moved from HTTP 1.0 to HTTP 1.1 instead? You could use the following curl to validate this change.

    curl -IvkH 'Host: <fqdn>' "http://<url>"
