You web server is most likely generating the links with an absolute path. You have a few options to help with that if your devs can't change the link to relative easily. You can just have a redirect setup on 80 that redirects everything over to HTTPS, enable your site to use HSTS which will tell modern browsers to never even try going to HTTP and always go to HTTPS for the domain, or you can use stream profile to rewrite all the respons links coming from the server to https.

    Yes sir you are right about redirecting each response from 80 to 443. I am using version 11.2.1. My VIP,s are 10.50.180.14:80 and 10.50.180.14:443. Sir can you please make me a simplest iRule for this. I will be grateful.
