x-authenticated-user - Web Proxy
Hi Guys,
Wondering if somebody can help or at least let me know if it would be possible to develop an iRule so that requests to a whitelist of URL's to a web proxy VIP could be intercepted ...

Sure, if you had a white-list you'd just need to do a class match and an HTTP::header insert, assuming that your app will trust the x-authenticated-user header and doesn't require some other token. ;)
You'd just need a class of IPs:
class whitelist {
"/myapp/somepage1"
"/myapp/somepage2"
....
}
And an iRule to look through that class and insert the header if it finds a match.
when HTTP_REQUEST {
if {!([HTTP::header exists "x-authenticated-user"]) } {
if { [class match [HTTP::uri] equals whitelist] } {
HTTP::header insert "X-Authenticated-User" "authenticated"
}
}
}
Something like that. If you've got any more specific questions or requirements, let me know.
Colin
