LTM policies do not accept special characters in HTTP header names.
The system posts a validation error. For example, for the value $WSRA, the system posts the following message: 01071748:3: Policy '/Common/ft1_pool_select', rule 'notvar2'; invalid name, value '$WSRA'.
This occurs when trying to use a '$' character in a header name.
None.
You can now use the special characters ~!#$%^&*| in HTTP headers and cookie names.
