Thanks for the reply Yoann. I doubt this would work due to the DNS names having to point to a particular IP. I could not direct port 80 traffic to a different address and 443 to another.

 

I always thought it was a messy config to have duplicate VIPs for every https redirect. I was hoping that the port lists would offer a cleaner setup.

 

If it is not possible then I can always go back to the previous design.

 

I will keep having a play. Thanks for your help.
