How to set up weblogic server to read headers when weblogic server resides behind F5 Big-ip
I am trying to understand how this process works.. A few words about my enviroment
Using:
- 11gR2 v. 11.1.2.1.0.
- JDeveloper 11.1.2.1.0
- WLS 10.3
- Jasper Reports 4.0
From my understanding I need to create a servlet in Jdev to access the headers of the client, which is deployed to the WLS.
Q. 1. Will this servlet be accessing the headers of the client or the BigIp?
Q. 2. Does any one have an example of how to create a servlet to access the headers supplied by either the client or BigIp?
Q. 3. Once deployed to the server how do I run the servlet?
The goal here is to use the headers to validate a user.
