Manipulating HTTP Header

Hello again,

Can anyone speak to this?  I need a way to:

   - Intercept the HTTP header
      - Use the HTTP header to do a look-up against a database
         - Then modify the HTTP header (if needed) and resume ATS standard
         process…


Can I use Blacklist to do this?   Is there a better (i.e. faster and more
consistent) way to do this that you know of?


Thank you.

Sean

You bring up a great point.  What are the limits of Blacklist?  Does it
create a bottle neck?  The blacklist example identifies the file
blacklist.txt.   Could ATS handle this txt file if it had over 40,000
entries?

Sounds like you should utilize the plug-in sdk and I see you've  
already found the blacklist plug.

Not sure what your looking up but make sure that it won't serve as an  
additional bottle neck.

I think your on the right track.
