maintenance iRule behavior - multiple redirect/respond and event disable

Thanks nitass for your response.

 

 

F5 support made a similar recommendation - put a TCP::close right after the response.

 

 

And (drumroll please...) I'm happy to say that either one (HTTP::close or TCP::close) fixes the problem!

 

 

Thanks for your help.

 

 

So now my WORKING maintenance iRule is:

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST priority 10 {

 

if { ([matchclass [IP::client_addr] equals $::internal_net]) } {

 

for matched IPs - allows pass-thru

 

} else {

 

switch -glob [HTTP::path] {

 

"/xyz" {

 

exception to maint page - do something here

 

}

 

default {

 

HTTP::respond 200 content {

 

html content here

 

}

 

TCP::close

 

event disable

 

}

 

}

 

}

 

}
