Assistance requested with HTTPS Response Redirect - VMware Platform Services Controller

4) In an attempt to better understand iRules and HTTP, I have begun writing simple logging rules. Thanks to various sources on DevCentral for the bits of code that I am using and coupling together.

Here is an example of the iRule:

when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
log local0. "Client Accepted.  Client IP: [IP::client_addr]"
}

when HTTP_REQUEST {
log local0. "Request from IP [IP::local_addr] for hostname [HTTP::host] and URI [HTTP::uri]"
}

when HTTP_RESPONSE {
log local0. "Response from IP [IP::local_addr] with server IP address [IP::server_addr].  URI not valid in this context."
}

Notes: Not available in HTTP_RESPONSE:

• HTTP::host, HTTP::uri, HTTP::server

Output from the Logs: (IPs, of course, have been replaced with substitute values) Where:

• 192.168.2.2 is the Non-floating Self-IP of the F5 within the 192.168.2.x vlan.
• 192.168.2.75 is the IP of the Virtual Server hosting https://www.company.com.
• 192.168.2.91 is the IP of the "node1" back-end server that makes up one of the Members of the Pool.
• 192.168.1.51 is the IP address of the external workstation attempting to access https://www.company.com
