HTTPS to HTTP iRule Redirection

We recently shut down the nodes on a VIP that is no longer in use, but I would like traffic to be redirected to our new VIP if customers hit the old page. An HTTP redirect iRule works perfectly fine ...

What happens if you view the http request/response in fiddler, http fox? any clues here?

 

I wonder if HTTP::respond might work better, try:

 

HTTP::respond 301 Location "http://website.com/newpage"

 

See if this helps.

 

301 is better as it's a permanent move so search engines will cache this. A redirect it won't
