Question

An LTM Specialist must rewrite text in an HTML response from a web server. A client sends the HTTP request below:

GET / HTTP/1.1 -  
  
Host: www.f5.com -  
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:16.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/16.0  
Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,*/*;q=0.8  
  
Accept-LanguagE. en-US,en;q=0.5 -  
  
Accept-EncodinG. gzip, deflate -  
  
Cache-Control: no-cache -  
  
Connection: keep-alive -  
  
CookiE. somecookie=1 -

Although a stream profile has been added to the virtual server, the HTTP-response content is not being matched and therefore is not modified.

Which HTTP header should the LTM Specialist remove from the request so that the content can be matched and modified?

A Connection
B Accept
C Cache-Control
D Accept-Encoding

Explanation

Removing Accept-Encoding prevents the server from returning a gzip- or deflate-compressed response. BIG-IP LTM stream filtering does not decompress response content for text matching, so compressed payload data cannot be reliably matched and rewritten.
