As of BIG-IP version 14.1, HTTP iRule commands that inspect HTTP state after the commands HTTP::respond, HTTP::redirect, and HTTP::retry returns errors instead of returning corrupt data (https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K23237429). When the NTLM profile is configured, it does the same through a built-in TCL rule where among several things, it tries to check if HTTP::cookie exists. If a profile like HTTP exists wherein a redirect/respond/retry is configured, it results in a TCL error informing the admin that they are accessing an invalid HTTP state.
Tcl error is seen in /var/log/ltm informing the admin that the iRule operation executed after HTTP::redirect/retry/respond is not supported. For example - TCL error: _plugin_rule_/Common/ntlm_default_iis <HTTP_REQUEST> - ERR_NOT_SUPPORTED (line 1) invoked from within "HTTP::cookie exists [PROFILE::ntlm insert_cookie_name]"
-- NTLM profile is configured alongside HTTP profile -- One of the redirect/respond/retry commands has been executed before the NTLM profile accesses the state of HTTP (for ex. HTTP::collect, HTTP::close, HTTP::cookie, etc.).
