OK, so it's getting more complicated.

 

We cannot support https on our site so I have to redirect the traffic to http which is a different virtual server for the same site.

 

There I still need an irule in place as I still need to filter traffic coming to it. but once redirected from the https virtual server to the http virtual server, the referrer is dropped.

 

So I guess I need to add some kind of a cookie on the https irule and look for it on the http irule and allow access.

 

Any ideas how this can be set?

 

 

many thanks for the help
