Nimbostratus8080 to 8443 iRule issue
I have the following setup:HTTP::redirect https://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]}HTTP::redirect https://[HTTP::host]:8443[HTTP::uri]}
client app running on port 80 and port 8080. ssl is offloaded to the load balancer on ports 443 and 8443 respectively.
The application that is running sometimes writes fully qualified URL links, so I need an iRule to map the request appropriately. The following works for the 80 to 443 mapping:
when HTTP_REQUEST {
I am trying to do a similar iRule to handle the 8080 to 8443 mapping:
when HTTP_REQUEST {
However, this does not seem to work. Can anyone tell me what I am missing?
So, it's clear the web browser will connect to my site like this:
https://x.com:8443
Let's say there is an anchor on the page which has been (poorly) written out like this:
http://x.com:8080/go
I need the load balancer to see that url and redirect the browser to
https://x.com:8443/go
Again, I have no issues with the similar redirect going from 80 to 443.
Thanks.

I think I see where the iRule is incorrect (need the getfield syntax). I've passed along the info to the network engineer. Thanks for the quick reply. I'll update once I have tested out the new configuration.
