Use iRulke to extract X-Forwarded out of HTTP packet

Aaron

 

Yes I need the iRule to put "X-Forwarded-for" of the original IP address otherwise, it puts the IP address of the LTM interface in the HTTP header.

 

If I used a HTTP profile it inserted this inthe packet. I configured the profile to insert the X-Forwarded-For but due to the nature of the sending device the F5 does not then see this as a complaint HTTP packet. SO I am unable to apply a HTTP profile of any sort. Unable to write a simple iRule as it then requires an HTTP profile.

 

SO if possible the packet that the back end server gets has the originator's IP and NOT the LTM interface.

 

Thanks.
