Any one create an iRule to perform - Signed Header Authentication ?
Basically the F5 would need to decrypt/validate received HTTP header(s) that are encrypted with a private key (shared bet...
Are they encrypted or signed or both? Encryption and authentication are very different things, cryptographically speaking. What algorithm(s) would you want to be using?
There are a few cryptographic primitives available from iRules now. For authentication, people have definitely used them to do HMAC computation.
