Yes, that's what I want.  I only want Host1 to be recognized when the CID of the request matches the string "A/B/C".

My problem is, that when the conditions are fulfilled, the match if line does not work correctly.

When I use the following statement, however, it works correctly:
match if "Group1" = "Group1" and option agent.circuit-id = "A/B/C";
