When running an AdminUI and configuring 2 rules having that:
*.myapp*.net/*
*.myotherapp.net/*
At first glance, as per this KD, the Realm configuration should be a string. Regular expressions are only available for the Rules (1).
Configuring with the following:
Realm : /*.myapp*.net
Rule : /*
protected with Basic
Then in the browser, access is granted without having to log in:
http://wa.training.com/1.myapp1.net/allheaders.php
And trying to reach this URL which has reserved character, the Web Agent returns 500 complainings that:
[ERROR][sm-HTTPAgent-00100] URL contains invalid characters.
Exiting with HTTP 500 server error '00-0002'.
http://wa.training.com/*.myapp*.net/allheaders.php
To correct that behavior, put the regular expression into the rule definition for that to work.
Realm : /
Rule : *.myapp*.net/*
protected with Basic
Then in the browser, access is requested to log in with Basic Authentication Scheme:
http://wa.training.com/1.myapp1.net/allheaders.php
and access is granted after giving the expected credentials.

AdminUI realm configuration with asterix * wildcard
Wildcards in Realms are not supported. Only string are allowed
(1). They would be treated as literal character. And as such, note
that * are reserved characters in URL and should not be in usage
(2).
