Applications behind WAF (Web Application Firewall)

If I need to migrate my application behind a WAF what do I have to keep in mind?

Does the extranet use anything other than GET, POST, HEAD requests?

Does it use CUSTOM type methods that should be considered for authorization?

Hi Catarina,

I believe that the webpages only make use of GET, POST and HEAD methods. However, future modules (DataAPI, Scripted Connectors, ...) exposing a REST API might require the use of PUT and DELETE as well.

The CUSTOM type should not be used anywhere so I believe it fine to block that in the WAF.

Kind regards,
