Opened: Jun 23, 2014 Severity: 3-Major
When the iRule command "DNS::ends0 subnet address" is an IPv4 address and is stored in a variable, it might not be interpreted properly by other iRule commands that expect an IP address (for example, the "whereis" command).
Other iRule commands that utilize the variable may not work as expected (for example, the "whereis" command).
The output of "DNS::ends0 subnet address" command returns an IPv4 address and it is stored in a variable.
When utilizing the variable, force a string interpretation of the value. For example, rather than: set srcip [DNS::ends0 subnet address] set srccountry [whereis $srcip country] Use set srcip [DNS::ends0 subnet address] set srccountry [whereis [string tolower $srcip] country]
None
