blocking page
2 TopicsiRule for blocking specific string in header & displaying blocking page
I am wondering if I can create an iRule to block a request if a certain string appears anywhere in the header. For example, it would be something like... when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [HTTP::header "User-Agent"] contains "test1234" } { drop return } } Except I would not want the block to be limited to the User-Agent. I would want it to be blocked no matter where "test1234" appeared in the header. A follow-up to that would be if I can also have this iRule display the blocking page with a SupportID. I would like those testing to be able to have visual confirmation to see it worked and so they can easily share it with others.Solved1.1KViews0likes3CommentsBlock page for TLSv1.x or SSL connections
We have a web page/application that we want to reject connections from any client not using at least TLSv1.2. The way we were planning on doing that was to do this in IIS on the server. It would disallow access to the application and display a banner directing them to update their browser and/or OS to a more recent version. But it appears that since TLS is terminating on the F5, when the server-side TLS connection is established to IIS, it's preferring TLSv1.2 and IIS is never seeing the 1.0/1.1 or SSLv3 connections and thus no banner is displayed. I'd like to block everything but TLSv1.2 at the F5 but also be able to display a page that explains that they need to update their browser rather than them just getting a generic "cannot connect to page" type of response. Not sure the best/easiest way to do this - would it be with an iRule or some block page via LTM policy? I've never done this before so any help would be appreciated.351Views0likes2Comments
