But the doc was not updated to reflect this. Since this change was backported to 1.5, this doc update should be backported as well. --- diff --git a/doc/configuration.txt b/doc/configuration.txt index 194ce23ac9..ea1962593c 100644 --- a/doc/configuration.txt +++ b/doc/configuration.txt @@ -7585,9 +7585,9 @@ tcp-request content [{if | unless} ] contents will always be immediately present when the rule is evaluated first.
