ASM::disable

Description

Disables the ASM plugin for the current TCP connection. ASM will remain disabled on the current TCP connection until it is closed or ASM::enable is called.

Syntax

ASM::disable <plugin>

ASM::disable

  • Disables plugin processing for the duration of the TCP connection or until ASM::enable is called.
  • Note: ASM::disable deprecates PLUGIN::disable ASM

Examples

# Disable ASM for HTTP paths ending in .jpg
when HTTP_CLASS_SELECTED {
  ASM::enable
  if { [HTTP::path] ends_with ".jpg" } {
    ASM::disable
  }
}


# This example iRule disables ASM if the client IP address
# is part of an address type datagroup named bypass_asm_class.
# The bypass_asm_class datagroup must be created before this iRule is created.
# To debug the iRule, uncomment the log lines.
# The iRule is for ASM 10.0.1 or higher only
when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {

   #log local0. "[IP::client_addr]:[TCP::client_port]: New TCP connection to [virtual name] [IP::local_addr]:[TCP::local_port]"
   # Check if client IP is in the bypass_asm_class
   if {[matchclass [IP::client_addr] equals bypass_asm_class]}{

      # Set a variable to track that we'll disable ASM
      #   when a class with ASM enabled is matched
      set disable_asm 1
      #log local0. "[IP::client_addr]:[TCP::client_port]: Client matched bypass_asm_class datagroup."
   } else {
      set disable_asm 0
      #log local0. "[IP::client_addr]:[TCP::client_port]: Client did not match bypass_asm_class datagroup."
   }
}
when HTTP_CLASS_SELECTED {

   # As ASM can only be disabled in HTTP_CLASS_SELECTED,
   # check the variable set in CLIENT_ACCEPTED.
   # Also verify ASM is enabled on the matched class before trying to disable ASM
   if {[HTTP::class asm]==1}{

      #log local0. "[IP::client_addr]:[TCP::client_port]: [HTTP::class] has ASM enabled."

      if {$disable_asm==1}{
