It's possible to do this in an iRule, but it could get very complicated and resource intensive. If you can't change the pages themselves, you could try rewriting the URLs in the HTML responses on the IIS servers. I think IIS URL rewrite plugin should support this:

 

 

 

http://www.iis.net/download/URLRewrite

 

 

Easily replace Web application URLs to produce user and search engine friendly results

 

 

URL Rewrite permits Web administrators to easily replace the URLs generated by a Web application in the response HTML with a more user friendly and search engine friendly equivalent. Links can be modified in the HTML markup generated by a Web application behind a reverse proxy. URL Rewrite makes things easier for outbound response content and headers rewriting with outbound rewrite rules that work with HTTP request and response headers and with IIS server variables.
