header rewrite/insert

I have been trying to find something to rewrite or insert a host header.

 

back drop we have iis servers that run websites/applications on some it is looking for a specific header in order to send you to the correct website. This however is an issue when trying to test the virtual server that is being moved to a new ip range or for the monitoring of websites that may reside on the server. any help is greatly appreciated.

    Have you tried replacing the HTTP Host header in an iRule?

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
    HTTP::header replace Host "foo.example.com"
}

    Have you just used the default on the HTTP Profile? I'd think it would be less overhead than an iRule.
