table incr timeout

[Abed_AL-R]

Hi

Is there any way to create the 'table incr' entry without timeout

according to f5 documentation it will have timeout of 180 seconds

is there any other syntax i can use instead of it to not have the 180 seconds timeout?

This is part of the iRule I'm using:

set srcip [IP::remote_addr]  
if { [ASM::violation count] > 0 } {
  set getCount [table incr $key]
    if { $getCount< $static::maxRate } {
      incr getCount 1
    } else {
    table delete $key
}  

If there was no traffic for 3 minutes then the $key variable will be timeout, and the 'getCount' variable will be reset

OK, solved

I used this syntax:

set srcip [IP::remote_addr]
set curtime [clock second]
set hash $curtime
set key "count:$srcip:$hash"
 
if { [ASM::violation count] > 0 } {
        table add -subtable "countvio" $key "inserted" indef
        set getCount [table keys -subtable "countvio" -count]
	    if { $getCount< $static::maxRate } {
		    incr getCount 1
	    } else {
	        table delete -all -subtable "countvio"
}}

So the stategy was to create a subtable and insert a new unique key value (used current time seconds for that). And then counted the values in the subtable.
