Hi,

If you want the client to see the project.company.com hostname, you can send them a 302 redirect with an iRule like this: 


when HTTP_REQUEST {

if {[string tolower [HTTP::host]] eq "corporate.company.com"\
and [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] starts_with "/products/pwa"}{
HTTP::redirect "http://project.company.com[HTTP::uri]"
}
}

If you want to hide the project.company.com host name from the client you can use the ProxyPass iRule:
