data group.

e.g. 

[root@ve1023:Active] config  b class convert_list list
class convert_list {
   {
      "//" { "/" }
      "\\\\" { "/" }
   }
}
[root@ve1023:Active] config  b rule myrule list
rule myrule {
   when HTTP_REQUEST {
   set uri [HTTP::uri]
   foreach item [class get convert_list] {
      set uri [string map $item $uri]
   }
   log local0. "[HTTP::uri] -> $uri"
}
}

[root@ve1023:Active] config  cat /var/log/ltm
