Adding allowed methods
All security policies accept standard HTTP methods by default. If your web
application uses HTTP methods other than the default allowed methods (GET, HEAD, and
POST), you can add them to the security policy.
The method is added to the allowed methods list. The system treats any incoming HTTP
request that uses an HTTP method other than an allowed method as an invalid request. The
system ignores, learns, logs, or blocks the request depending on the settings configured
for the Illegal Method violation on the Application Security: Blocking:
Settings screen.
