Actual exam question for F5 Networks's 301b exam

Question #: 85
Topic #: 7

[All 301b Questions]

A virtual server for a set of web services is constructed on an LTM device. The LTM Specialist has created an iRule and applied this iRule to the virtual server:

when HTTP_REQUEST {

switch [HTTP::uri] {

"/ws1/ws.jsp" {

log local0. "[HTTP::uri]-Redirected to JSP Pool"

pool JSP

}

default { log local0. "[HTTP::uri]-Redirected to Non-JSP Pool"

pool NonJSP

}

However, the iRule is NOT behaving as expected. Below is a snapshot of the log:

/WS1/ws.jsp-Redirected to JSP Pool

/WS1/WS.jsp-Redirected to Non-JSP Pool

/ws1/WS.jsp-Redirected to Non-JSP Pool

/WS1/ws.jsp-Redirected to JSP Pool

/ws1/ws.jsp-Redirected to Non-JSP Pool

What should the LTM Specialist do to resolve this?

AUse the followinG. switch -lc [HTTP::uri]

BUse the followinG. switch [string tolower [HTTP::uri]]

CSet the 'Case Sensitivity' option of each member to 'None'.

DSelect the 'Process Case-Insensitivity' option for the virtual server.

Setting the 'Case Sensitivity' option to 'None' on each pool member seems like a simple solution. That way, the iRule can match the URIs correctly.

Haha, the LTM Specialist is probably scratching their head trying to figure this out. They need to remember that HTTP is all about case-sensitivity!

I think the LTM Specialist should use the 'switch [string tolower [HTTP::uri]]' option to make the matching case-insensitive.

Looks like the iRule is case-sensitive, which is causing the inconsistent behavior. The log shows different requests being redirected to different pools.
