NimbostratusCSS to F5 url redirect
We are migrating from CSS to F5s v10.0.0.
The CSS has two VIPs same IP and port one is a default url "/a*" and other url is "/connected window*" that goes to same server
I was reading the forum and found that I need to creat iRule for this, let me know if this is the correct translation.
when HTTP_REQUEST {
if { [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] contains "connectedwindow"} {
pool connect_pool
}
}
is there a better way to write this or will this even work?
here is sample from CSS:
content beta.pa
vip address 1.1.1.1
add service ABCserver
protocol tcp
port 80
url "/a*"
active
content beta_conn.pa
vip address 1.1.1.1
add service ABCserver
protocol tcp
port 80
url "/connectedwindow*"
active
Thanks in advance.

/a* with string matching equates to
[HTTP::uri] starts_with "/a"
You could also use:
[string match "/a*" [HTTP::uri]]
Similarly, /connectedwindow* equates to:
[HTTP::uri] starts_with "/connectedwindow"
or:
[string match "/connectedwindow*" [HTTP::uri]]
You could also use a switch statement with glob style wildcard matching:when HTTP_REQUEST { Check requested URI switch -glob [HTTP::uri] { "/a*" { pool a_pool } "/connectedwindow*" { pool connect_pool } default { Take some default action? } } }

Allim_63326Thanks Aaron for the quick reply, I will use glob style wildcard matching, we don't have any default action. Can I just use like you recommended.
I will do the test and let you know.
Thanks again
