NimbostratusHttp to Http Uri forward
Hi
i have a question regarding uri forwarding, i have following scenario, F5 LTM balancing 2 web servers (W1 and W2)using oracle web logic, each server has several applications running.
user request : http://app1.example.com/APP1 this should be load balanced to W1:7010 and W2:7020 but the request should contain /APP1.
i was unable to configure this any help is greatly appreciated
Thanks

Hi Mario, You could attach an iRule like this to your virtual server. That way all URIs starting /app1/ upper or lower case will go to your app1-pool and so on.
when HTTP_REQUEST { set uri [strng tolower [HTTP::uri]] switch -glob $uri { "/app1/" {
pool app1-pool } "/app2/" { pool app2-pool } } }- Stewart
A http redirect sent to the client when http://app1.example.com/ is accessed should do the trick.
when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [HTTP::uri] equals "/" and [string tolower [HTTP::host]] equals "app1.example.com"} { HTTP::redirect "http://[HTTP::host]/APP1" } }
