i think this one should not have http://

 

e.g.

 

HTTP::header replace Host "docs.remotesite.com"

 

My uri displayed in the browser stays at /templates/docs. I would like it to change to /templates/docs/index.html

 

you need HTTP::redirect to change url in browser.

It does seem to be pulling content from docs.remotesite.com but there are some javascript files from that page that are not being downloaded "GET" correctly.

 

in your irule, it does change host header, uri and send traffic to pool_docs pool only when uri is /templates/docs or /templates/docs/. does the javascript also need to?

I am running version BIG-IP 11.5.2 Build 0.0.141 Final When I copy and paste the ProxyPass code into my iRule and try to save I get an error, 01070151:3: Rule [/Common/rt18877] error: /Common/rt18877:1: error: [undefined procedure: @][@] If I remove the '@' from the beginning of the code, it will save the iRule, but I don't see any Proxy Pass activity while tailing logs.
