Change or modify the landing page after login
Dear F5 and community,
Good day. Would like to ask your expertise on how to change or modify the landing page after login.
The ideal setup is an external user > browses to domain.com > shows a login page (instead of the domain.com page) > after successfull login it will show a correct landing page (domain.com)
For now, when a user logins , it shows a wrong landing page. Even the Home button is redirected to a wrong landing page.
What I notice is the difference of the rewrite code.
Wrong landing page --> https://domain.com/f5-w-687474703a2f2f736d6172742e7367732e6f72672e7361$$/
Correct landing page --> https://domain.com/f5-w-687474703a2f2f7367732d6a65643231373a32303234$$/ar/
Appreciate any advice on this and Thank you in advance.
I see APM is in place, you can check in access session logs if the session.server.landinguri variable is being populated as intended.
You can use variable assign box to change it, but keep it mind this will rewrite it every time; otherwise you can set up an iRule that modifies this value and will let you ise if-then statements at least.
You can setup an iRule to rewrite it if you wish, but keep in mind that *all* access sessions will hit the iRule so it's better if you script it to be- Matthew1146Nimbostratus

Here are a few ways you can modify the landing page after login on F5 BIG-IP:
1. Use an iRule to redirect to a different URL after successful authentication. You can check for the presence of a session cookie or other header and do a REDIRECT or HTTP::redirect to send the user to a different landing page.
2. Modify the AAA authentication profile to change the post-authentication action from "Go to URL" to an iRule event or other option. This will allow you to have more control over the landing page flow after login.
3. Use APM webtops and webtop links to specify a custom landing page after login. You can create a webtop link that points to the desired URL.
4. For specific virtual servers, modify the Rewrite profile to rewrite the URL to the desired landing page. Make sure the profile is assigned to the virtual server handling the login POST request.
The key is to override the default post-auth behavior on successful login by using iRules, webtops, or URL rewriting. This will allow you to send the user to the correct landing page after authenticating. Let me know if any part needs more clarification!
