www.site.com/path/new, use the following configuration:
>> HTTP Modification http_mod Rule 2# cur
Current rule: 2
enabled, name My_list
action insert header
HEADER=New-Header, VALUE=VALUE
MATCH=url, URL=www.site.com, PATH=/path/new
direction request
Configuring HTTP Modification for Cookies
When using cookies for request, the Cookies HTTP header is updated. When using cookies for
responses, the Set-Cookie header is updated.
When creating a rule for a cookie element, the following actions can be defined:
• To configure the replace action for cookies, page 250
• To configure the remove action for cookies, page 251
• To configure the insert action for cookies, page 252
Note: When both cookie-based pbind is used and HTTP modifications on the same cookie header
are defined, Alteon performs both. This may lead to various application behaviors and should be
done with caution.
