URL Maps

The input controls at the top of this page are described here: Document Editor interface. Specific editing of a URL Map is described below.
This page specifies a list of URLs and the security policies assigned to them.
Every incoming HTTP/S request targets a specific URL. Curiefense finds the best match for that URL in the URL Maps, and applies the security policies defined for it.
The "best match" is determined by regex evaluation. (The order in which the URLs are listed in the interface does not matter.) If no matching definition is found, Curiefense applies the rulesets from the default definition.
A URL Map consists of:
Host definition: The (sub)domain(s) within which the Path Maps will be found.
Path Maps: one or more paths, and the security policies which will be applied to them.
To add a new URL Map, use the buttons at the top of the window to duplicate an existing one or create a new one. Then fill in these fields.
Field
Value
(unlabeled)
The name of the URL Map is displayed for editing on the upper left.
Matching Names
A regex for the subdomain(s) and/or domain(s).
To add a new Path Map, select an existing one in the middle of the window, expand it, and select "Fork Profile" at the bottom. The existing one will be cloned, and the new one will be displayed for editing.
Note that the buttons at the top of the window are for administering URL Maps (which generally correspond to domains). Administering Path Maps (for paths and URLs within the specified domain) is done in the middle of the window.
To edit an existing Path Map definition, click on the "expand" button at the end of its listing. The edit window shown below will appear.
