NimbostratusHow to create redirection page in BIG IP DNS
Hi.i am new to big ip DNS.we have an irule for redirecting the blocked urls to and external Host 10.16.3.4,Now i want to create a redirection page in BIG IP itself and redirect the blocked urls queries to the new page instead of external server.
when DNS_REQUEST { if { [DNS::question name] starts_with "-" } then { DNS::drop } elseif { [class match [string tolower [DNS::question name]] eq Blacklist_Domain] } then { if { [DNS::question type] eq "A" } then { DNS::answer insert "[DNS::question name]. 60 IN A 10.16.3.4" DNS::header ra "1" } else { DNS::last_act reject } DNS::return } } any help?
what sort of redirection you are talking about? HTTP 302?

You cannot block/redirect URLs in F5 DNS as it only deals with the DNS queries, FQDN to IP, so the URL is never sent to the F5 DNS.
I would to do this sort of redirection on the F5 LTMs with
and have the FQDN used resolve on the F5 DNS toHTTP::redirect
.10.16.3.4
surya24d@surgeon. Scenario is we need to block site abc.com. if any query is coming for abc.com we need to redirect or display a custom page/words stating mentioned site is blocked.
