Help with Port Translation

Apologies in advance if this is the wrong forum or place to ask this question, but I can't seem to figure this out.     We have a Java Web Server application (ManageEngine's AD Self Service)...

the original line had 8080, which I changed to 9443, but again , that is just a comment. The LTM is actually reading what that port is and just removing it, with the result being a redirection with no port specified, so it uses the standard of 443, since we are doing https here.

 

 

This is the crucial line....

 

 

HTTP::header replace Location [string map ":[TCP::remote_port]/ /" [HTTP::header value Location]]

 

that replaces :xxxx/ :/ where xxxx is whatever non standard port the server is sending in its redirection.
