Creating an allow-all per-session policy

You create an allow-all per-session policy to provide an in and out point for your per-request policies on a virtual server.
It is not required that the per-session policy that provides the in and out point for your per-request policy be empty. You can use an existing policy, or create one with per-session access policy items specifically for this purpose. However, an allow-all policy is the simplest per-session policy that will work.
  1. On the Main tab, click
    Access
    Profiles / Policies
    .
    The Access Profiles (Per-Session Policies) screen opens.
  2. Click
    Create
    .
    The New Profile screen opens.
  3. In the
    Name
    field, type a unique name for the access profile.
  4. For the
    Profile Type
    , select
    All
    .
  5. For
    Profile Scope
    , specify the appropriate scope for this policy, or use the default
    Profile
    .
  6. For the
    Customization Type
    , use the default value
    Modern
    .
  7. In the
    Language Settings
    section, move one or more languages to the
    Accepted Languages
    list.
  8. Click
    Finished
    .
    The
    Access Profiles (Per-Session Policies)
    screen is displayed.
  9. In the
    Per-Session Policies
    column, click the
    Edit...
    link.
  10. Change the
    Deny
    ending to
    Allow
    .
  11. Save
    and
    Apply
    the access policy.
You now have a per-session access policy that allows all traffic, which can then be processed by the per-request access policy.
Create a virtual server for the HTTP Connector policy.
