Hi Siddharth,

As long as you're using a client SSL profile to decrypt the HTTPS traffic, you can use an iRule to redirect to an HTTPS URL. The client SSL profile is necessary for TMM to inspect the HTTP content.

You can use HTTPS in the redirect like this:


when HTTP_REQUEST {
   if { [HTTP::uri equals "/"] }{
      HTTP::redirect "https://ondemand.com/ier"
   }
}

On the other hand, if TMM isn't decrypting the HTTPS, you won't be able to issue a redirect in an iRule.
