On Access Gateway Service, you can use the following special tokens to modify the default matching rules. Access Gateway Appliance does not support these tokens.
[w] to match one white space character
[ow] to match 0 or more white space characters
[ep] to match a path element in a URL path, excluding words that end in a period
[ew] to match a word element in a URL path, including words that end in a period
[oa] to match one or more alphanumeric characters
White Space Tokens: You use the [w] and the [ow] tokens to specify where white space might occur in the string. For example:
[ow]my[w]string[w]to[w]replace[ow]
If you don’t know, or don’t care, whether the string has zero or more white characters at the beginning and at the end, use [ow] to specify this. The [w] specifies exactly one white character.
Path Tokens: You use the [ep] and [ew] tokens to match path strings. The [ep] token can be used to match the following types of paths:
|
Search String |
Matches This String |
Does not’ Match This String |
|---|---|---|
|
/path[ep] |
/path /home/path/other |
/path.html /home/pathother |
The [ew] token can be used to match the following types of paths:
|
Search String |
Matches This String |
Does not Match This String |
|---|---|---|
|
/path[ew] |
/path.html /home/path |
/paths |
Name Tokens: You use the [oa] token to match function or parameter names that have a set string to start the name and end the name, but the middle part of the name is a computer-generated alphanumeric string. For example, the [oa] token can be used to match the following types of names:
|
Search String |
