Hello,

 

 

Are you running BIG-IP LTM v9 or v4.x? It isn't possible to rewrite HTTP requests in 4.x. For 9.x, you can post future questions in the other forum (Click here) to get more relevant eyes on your post.

 

 

HTTP::path (Click here) allows you to get or set the portion of the URI up to the query string.

 

 

HTTP::uri (Click here) allows you to get or set the entire URI including the path and the query string.

 

 

Are you wanting to mask the URL for every request? Or just for a specific requested path? If the latter, take a look at this post for information on why it's not really possible (Click here). If the latter, you can use HTTP::uri or HTTP::path to rewrite the request before it's sent to the pool.
