Hi Murat,

Are clients making HTTP/S requests directly to the virtual server? Or are they using the virtual server as a web proxy? For the former, if you want to rewrite all URIs to /httpgw without the client seeing the change, you can use an iRule like this: 


when HTTP_REQUEST {

    Check if host is abc.com
   if {[string tolower [HTTP::host]] eq "abc.com"}{

       Rewrite the URI to /httpgw
      HTTP::uri "/httpgw"
   }
}

If you don't want to check the host header is abc.com, you can remove the 'if' statement and the closing curly brace.
