geo blocking
3 TopicsGeoblocking/Redirects
Summary Today we do geoblocking within AFM to only allow specific countries to connect to our virtual servers. I have a request for one specific virtual server to no longer drop the connection, but instead re-direct them to a different website (externally hosted). My question: Is AFM the best place to do this? I see within each rule of an AFM policy, there is a spot to call on an iRule. Should I perform the re-direct there or is there a better spot to handle this requirement?599Views0likes6CommentsDoes BIG IP Ver. 12.X support automatic updates of the Geo Location Database?
Hi, We are using F5 BIG IP Ver 11.6.0 at the moment. We did employ Geo-blocking for a while however we found that we needed to manually update the DB or we were soon outdated and we saw some IPs being incorrectly identified as IP addresses are reissued. I have heard that F5 BIG IP Ver 12.0/12.1 allows to Geo Location databases to udpate automatically. I have tried to find official documentation on this however I have not been able to find any information at all. Is anyone able to confirm or point me in the right direction of the documentation that shows Ver 12.0/12.1 does support automatic updates of the Geo Locations databases? Thank You Kind Regards ChrisSolved576Views0likes6CommentsGeoblock exception based on user agent
Hi, We have Geo-blocking enabled for one of our apps and want to allow access from a third party tool that has a very specific user agent. Is it possible to allow requests from a geo blocked location when the user agent matches a particular string? Thank you.307Views0likes1Comment
