Clock based irule

Hello guys,

 

I have the follow irules:

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

           set url [HTTP::uri]

           set metodo [HTTP::method]

   if {([HTTP::method] eq "PUT") and ([HTTP::host] contains "xxxx")} {

       HTTP::path "URLpath"

       pool xxxxx

   }

}

 

I would that this irule doesn't work ( so it been stopped ) in a specify time (ex: in the morning from 8 to 9 am). It is possible to set it with some variable?

 

Thanks for any tips or idea.

Regards,

 

Antonino.

    Hi Lidev,

     

    Thanks for your quick reply. I saw that previusly you wrote about the iCall. The best way is your irule example or use iCall?

     

    Thanks,

    Regards.

    Hi Antonino,

    You have also Stanislas Irule that I find very well:

    https://devcentral.f5.com/s/feed/0D51T00006j3fU3SAI

    when RULE_INIT {
    array set static::timerange {
        Sunday {"05:30" "16:00"}
        Monday {"05:30" "16:00"}
        Tuesday {"05:30" "16:00"}
        Wednesday {"05:30" "16:00"}
        Thursday {"05:30" "16:00"}
        Friday {}
        Saturday {}
    }
}
 
when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if { ([string tolower [HTTP::uri]] contains "/contractor/") } {
        if {!([class match [IP::remote_addr] equals clntip])} {
            set denied 1
        } else {
            set now [clock seconds]
            set current_day [clock format $now -format {%A}]
            set start [lindex $static::timerange($current_day) 0]
            set end [lindex $static::timerange($current_day) 1]
            if {($start ne "") && ($end ne "") && ($now >= [clock scan $start]) && ($now < [clock scan $end])} {
                set denied 0
            } else {set denied 1}
            unset start end
        }
    } else {set denied 0}
 
    if { $denied } {
        HTTP::respond 200 content "Not Authorised! Contact AdministratorNot Authorised! Contact Administrator..."
    } else {pool POOL_443}
    unset denied
}

    regards
