Hi All , 

We are planning to add below  additional header in vhost of the application. Can you please suggest ways to implement it.

Header name: endpointRequested

 

Thanks.

I don't see it has any value. Can you try the below?

 

Header set X-endPointRequested "www.google.com"

 You need to read the ednPoint dynamically and apply here as variable. Before that ensure it is working by hardcoding some value like I did for google.com

 

Thanks!

        Hi @sriga311 

         

        You can add additional request headers in the v-host file like below:

         

        <VirtualHost *:443>
            ServerName ${SERVER_IP}
            ServerAlias ${NO_SUBDOMAIN_ALIAS}
            Header always append X-Frame-Options SAMEORIGIN
            Header set Keep-Alive 'timeout=10, max=98'
            Header set X-XSS-Protection "1; mode=block"
            Header always set Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=31536000; includeSubdomains;"
            Header set X-Content-Type-Options nosniff
        </VirtualHost>

          Hi @asutosh_jena_ ,

          W e have added the additional header as below in the vhost .But on restarting the  dispatcher , it got failed .So ,could you please let me know whether this is a wrong approach.

           

          <IfModule mod_headers.c>
          Header set endpointRequested
          </IfModule>

           

          Thanks.

            It is based on individual vhost where we define the server name as below .

            ServerName www.xyz.com
            ServerAlias www.xyz.com preview.xyz.com

             

            Thanks

             


            I mean what value are you expecting here. Let's say your website URL is www.mywebsite.com

            so when I access anypage with this domain what is the expected value for endPointURL header? Also does this value changes anytime or it remains constant always irrespective of any user accessing the page?

              I think this is another wy of adding client headers through farm file along with Virtual host.

               

              I think this also another way of setting client headers through farm file.

               

              Below are the allowed client headers. h

               

              /clientheaders
              {
              "CSRF-Token"
              "X-Forwarded-Proto"
              "referer"
              "user-agent"
              "authorization"
              "from"
              "content-type"
              "content-length"
              "accept-charset"
              "accept-encoding"
              "accept-language"
              "accept"
              "host"
              "if-match"
              "if-none-match"
              "if-range"
              "if-unmodified-since"
              "max-forwards"
              "proxy-authorization"
              "proxy-connection"
              "range"
              "cookie"
              "cq-action"
              "cq-handle"
              "handle"
              "action"
              "cqstats"
              "depth"
              "translate"
              "expires"
              "date"
              "dav"
              "ms-author-via"

              "destination"
              "PATH"
              }
