Can SSL bridging be configured by irule only (without using server ssl profile)

I currently have a website ( that resolves to a VIP on port 80 only and it load-balances to a server pool in our Datacenter.

 

When the user types this URL ( with a specific URI (/careers/jobs), the customer wants that traffic to reverse proxy back out to an externally hosted site (

 

The customer wants original URL (www.abc.com/careers/jobs) to remain in the browser and also any links to ( on the hosted site to show ( when the cursor hovers over it.

 

Also, the customer wants this specific traffic to be HTTPS from the user to the F5 and from the F5 to the hosted site (

 

Another thing, the hosted is using dynamic IP addresses so i will need to configure this using the hostname ( instead of a pool (with IP address in it).

 

I need to do all of this without messing with the port 80 traffic of the normal website.

 

This is being done on an older F5 running 10.0.1 software.

 

This is what i have done so far.

 

I created a port 443 version of the same VIP.

 

I created an irule to redirect any traffic with the URI (careers/jobs) to be redirected to the HTTPS VIP and applied it to the port 80 VIP.

 

On the HTTPS VIP, I am still working on an irule to redirect the traffic while keeping the original URL and modifying the links on the hosted site. Also, i am trying to figure out how to use a hostname instead of pool.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks
