Do you have similar content rules configured matching the 'GET' request in the same session? I suspect this may be related to the fact that you are also using 'advanced-balance arrowpoint-cookie'.

Can you remove the cookie portions of the rule configuration and test again?

Hi Zach,

I removed the advance-balance arrowpoint-cookie and

arrowpoint-cookie advance.

But, it´s still doesn´t work.

This is the config for GET:

content ar-qa-post

vip address 200.41.112.38

protocol tcp

port 80

url "/*"

advanced-balance arrowpoint-cookie

arrowpoint-cookie advanced

add service wqa01-27

add service wqa02-27

active

Do you have any test or idea...????

Many thanks.-

Javier

Javier,

what is 'does not work' ?

Do you see any hit on your post content rule ?

'sho summary'

Why do you want to separate post from get ?

Hi Gilles,

The HTTP POST don´t pass through arrow, GET yes.

I don´t want separate these, please, give any example for config get and post on arrow.

Thanks for your help.

Javier,

I don't understand your requirement -- if you don't want to seperate GET and POST requests, then drop the header-field-rule and just use a single content rule.

If you want them to be seperate, then I want you to test with arrowpoint cookies removed from the POST *and* GET content rules.

It´s still doesn´t work.

Javier,

I would suggest you to start with something basic and than add complexity.

Create a very simple content rule with just an ip address. no port. no protocol.

Then add one or more servers.

Activate.

Give it a try like this.

Does it work ?

If yes, define 'protocol tcp' and 'port 80'.

Does it work ?

If yes, configure 'url "/*"'

does it work ?

If yes, configure 'advanced-balance arrowpointcookie'

This config is explained at

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/contnetw/ps789/products_tech_note09186a0080094398.shtml

It it does not work, tell us what is not working.

Is it the stickyness that does not work or you can't even connect to the vip address ?

Also collect a sniffer trace on client and server.

Thanks,

Gilles.
