    Could you describe your issue more clearly? What sort of deployment is it? APM isn't a browser so much, but parts of it can create HTTP requests depending on how it's set up.

    When you say APM Browser, do you mean the edge client?

     

    That wouldn't be possible with an iRule as the iRule runs on the BigIP itself. If the blocking is between the client and the BigIP then it will be blocked before the BigIP gets a chance to rewrite anything from the client
