Expect: 100-continue header and Big-IP 100 responses
Is it possible for Big-IP (v.9.1.1) to supply the 100-continue header when it reeives a "Expect: 100-continue" header from a client (RFC2616) ?
We've tried something like this:
if { [HTTP::header exists "Expect"] } {
HTTP::header remove "Expect"
HTTP::respond 100
}
but it seems that the HTTP::respond correctly provides the response to the client, the client continues with the request, but Big-IP does not forward anything to the server (which is this case is a proxy server).
Anyone encountered something similar ? Any help would be appreciated.
Description of "Expect: 100 continue" header is available:
