https to https redirect policy, different certificates

Hi,

I have a VIP:443 (www.old-domain.com) with its SSL certificate.

I have a new VIP:443 (www.new-domain.com) with its SSL certificate.

I new to put a policy to redirect from the old to the new:

actions {
        1 {
           http-reply
           redirect
location tcl:https://www.new-domain.com[HTTP::uri]

For some reason it is not working.

Any suggestions? or better ideas than mine 🙂

Thank you and hope everyone is safe.

    Hello Julio,

    Strange behaviour, simple question 🙂 are you sure that:

    • you don't have a specific condition
    • your policy is correctly attached to the old VS
    • the draft is pushed to production

    You can also remove tcl and just validate redirection:

    actions {
        1 {
           http-reply
           redirect
           location https://www.new-domain.com

    meanwhile you can use an irule:

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
    HTTP::redirect "https://www.new-domain.com[HTTP::uri]"
}

    keep me in touch.

    regards

      Thank you for the suggestion. I will try the irule first - as I know that does not fails :-)

      Keep you posted.
