NimbostratusHTTP to 30000 Por redirection
Hi,
I have one web server running on port TCP 30000. I want to configure the F5 in a way that the user will only use the
http://abc
and it should redirect the user to the full URL. ...

NimbostratusPerfect it is working :)
I have configured the monitor on the pool for port 80 and for other pool i have configured port 30000. Now Just one thing want to clear if web server team for the maintenance stop the service on port 30000, it will only impact the web site related to that port not the other websites which are running on port 80 and 45000.
Please let me know if this is the right way of configuration.
Once again many thanks for the assitance.

EmployeeWhen you say that you have configured the monitor for port 80, do you mean that you have created a new monitor and specified in the monitor that it uses port 80?
If so, you don't need to do this - by default the port used will be that configured in the pool member eg 30000, 80, 45000, etc.
If the web server running on port 30000 dies then that pool member will be removed from that pool - the pool member in a different pool running on port 45000 will not be affected.
If you have an icmp monitor allocated at the node level then if the node fails to respond to icmp then the node will be removed from all pools in which it is assigned, no matter what port the pool member uses.
I suggest you try these things out, and you may find that you need to improve the monitor as by default it uses HTTP 0.9 and is very simple. There is lots of information and examples on here and ask.f5.com for how to do that
