AltostratusHTTP::header replace Host and HTTP:redirect
Hi,dear irule
1:if there are rule1 and rule2 under one VS,order is rule1 and rule2
rule1:
when HTTP:request {
if { [HTTP::host] euqals "www.srwd18.com"} {
HTTP::redirect "http://www.baidu.com"
}
}
rule2
when HTTP::request {
if {[HTTP::host] equals "www.srwd18.com"} {
HTTP::redirect "http://www.google.com"
}
}
so if someone visit www.srwd18.com,client will go to www.google.com or where?
how to turn off rule2,I only know return will jump out of the current event in single irule.
2:if I use HTTP::header replace Host "www.baidu.com" to rewrite the request
it seems this will not change the item in broswer,such as IE
so bigip will visit www.baidu.com for client,right?like a proxy
when HTTP::REQUEST {
if {[HTTP::host] equals "www.srwd18.com"}{
HTTP::header replace Host "www.baidu.com"
return}
}
it doesn't work
overall:What I am trying to achieve is:
there are 2 datacenter, same website ,if I want to forward traffic in site1 to site2 ,how to forward them?
The only way I can think about is HTTP::REDIRECT,but this will change the item/address in client's broswer
so it seems HTTP::header replace Host is a good choice,
Can some one help me?
Thanks in advance,
Robert_47833besides this, when HTTP_REQUEST {
log local0.info "rule1"
if {[HTTP::host] equals "www.srwd18.com"} {
node 220.181.111.147 80
HTTP::header replace Host "www.baidu.com"
}
only can send http request to site2 ,if no ssl server profile set in VS of site1,it will not work
do we will have cookie issue if we use http::header replace?

Can u give me the process how bigip handle this? HTTP::header replace Host "www.baidu.com"
it seems there is no http 302 or something like this
i have seen Colin has answered this question there.

and there are 2 FTP VS,how to redirect them?
i think the problem is how we get ftp hostname (since u want to redirect to site2 based on the hostname).
this is tcpdump when i connected to ftp server.

sorry i could not understand. can u post your virtual config here?- Robert_47833only can send http request to site2 ,if no ssl server profile set in VS of site1,it will not work

------for example ,in site 1 , there is a VS which only has client side ssl profile ,same as VS in site2
if I use
if {[HTTP::host] equals "www.srwd18.com"} {
node 220.181.111.147 80
HTTP::header replace Host "www.baidu.com"
then plain text will be sent to site2,because I don't have ssl server side profile. - Robert_47833Hi,nitass
do we have command to redirect ftp VS?
I know the hostname ,it is static
thanks in advance
