workaround for 32 bit integer limitation

Hi deb,

 

 

Thanks for your answer.

 

 

Actually it didn’t solve the problem since we have the issue already at the following line:

 

 

scan [HTTP::cookie $::myCookieName] "%d.%d.%d" myIpE myPortE unused

 

 

 

The problem is, that the string will be changed to integer with the %d statement. I did some further research and found that there is also a way to get the unsigned integer with the %u parameter. I really wonder why I haven’t seen that before.

 

With the following line it works fine:

 

 

scan [HTTP::cookie $::myCookieName] "%u.%d.%d" myIpE myPortE unused

 

 

 

It is actually not necessary to do the same thing with the ports since they anyway limited to 16 bits.

 

 

It would be great when somebody could fix this iRule in the iRules Samples list.

 

 

Cheers
