                       HTTP::respond 301 Location "https://www.abc.com/es-es/home/servicepoints.html"

		"CH"

		      HTTP::respond 301 Location "https://www.abc.com/se-se/home/servicepoints.html"
		}
		default {
		       HTTP::respond 301 Location "https://www.abc.com/home"
		}
	}
}

    this will be in LTM. You just use countrycode in iRule as mentioned above.

     

    e.g. ES - Spain, CH - Switzerland
