Permit A green check mark defines Permit as enabled. A red “X” defines Permit as disabled (denied). When
enabled, HTTP requests that match this rule are permitted. If not enabled, HTTP requests that match
this rule are denied.
Source IP Match against the source (origination) IP address of the HTTP request.
Destination IP Match against the origin server's IP address obtained from the HTTP request URL.
Destination Domain Displays the destination domain to match against the hostname in the HTTP request URL.
Destination Domain
Regex The destination domain regex is the same as the destination domain parameter, but the destination
domain regex allows an administrator to use regular expressions matching on origin server names.
URL Regex A green check mark column defines the URL regex as enabled. A red “X” defines the URL regex as
disabled. When enabled, regular expressions are used to match any part of a requested URL, including
the transfer protocol and origin server hostname.
Mimetype Regex A green check mark defines the mimetype regex as enabled. A red “X” defines the mimetype regex as
disabled. When enabled, regular expressions are used to match the mimetype of a HTTP request. A
MIME type matches when the regular expression property matches the string pattern described by the
regular expression.
