Multiple language support for Android F5 Access 3.0.8
As noted in K02242270, F5 Access 3.0.8 for Android does not provide the "Accept-Language" header in the initial request to the Big-IP. In order to provide support for multiple languages it is necessary to inspect the traffic that arrives a bit later on in the handshake process. The following irule allows the default language to be overridden with (in this case) French. when CLIENT_ACCEPTED { # # Required so that "when HTTP_REQUEST" can be used to patch the language issue with F5 Access for Android. # ACCESS::restrict_irule_events disable } when HTTP_REQUEST { # # Access policy default language is English. Look for French OS. # if { [HTTP::path] equals "/my.policy" && [HTTP::method] equals "POST" && !([HTTP::cookie exists "LastMRH_Session"]) && [string match "fr*" [HTTP::header "Accept-Language"]]} { ACCESS::session data set session.ui.lang "fr" } } Note that the Accept-Language header is correctly supplied by the F5 VPN clients for Windows, Mac and iOS. The iRule is required for Android only. If using this in a mixed environment then you would likely want to add a check for [HTTP::header User-Agent] contains "Android" to the if statement.
Add a language to the list of Factory BuiltIn Languages
Hi all, I wondered if it is possible to add an additional language to the list of Factory BuiltIn Languages from which you can chose when editing a Access Profile? We have a setup with multiple partitions, each requiring its own Access Profile incl. customized logon pages. We would like to add our native language as possible option so we only have to translate all text only once. If we can do this programmatic (by using iControlREST for example) per Access Profile, than this would also be a valid solution. If someone can provide some example code please share...
