The request is not immediately forwarded to the server. It may be forwarded if the server closes the connection.
HTTP POST request is not forwarded to the server side within 60 seconds, resulting in connection issues.
Under certain scenarios, the HTTP virtual server with the below iRule attached may not forward HTTP POST requests with large headers: HTTP_REQUEST_RELEASE { HTTP::header replace Authorization [string repeat x 4096] after 1 }
A possible workaround is to move the processing from HTTP_REQUEST_RELEASE to HTTP_REQUEST_SEND. Note: However, this workaround can be highly dependent on what actions are performed in the iRules involved.
