Hi Christian,
I had the similar requirement and I had to add the following statement in
order to make it work. I have put comment on the top of each statement.
*# Acl to make haproxy wait till enough information is received from
client to intercept and route*
* acl client_wait req_len gt 28 *
* # Acl to match the data in the payload i.e. match the 28th byte
in the payload *
* # and if it matches hex 32 (ascii char 2) then return success.*
* acl last_msisdn req.payload(28,1) -m bin 32 *
* # Delay the connection for max 10 sec to receive and inspect the
packet and match one of the ACL*
*tcp-request inspect-delay 3s*
*# When payload is received match for acl and accept the connection
if it matches*
* tcp-request content accept if client_wait*
option tcplog
* # Use the tcp-gcp if acl rule names **last_msisdn** matches*
* use_backend tcp-gcp if **last_msisdn*
*Regards,*
*Swapnil*
