HTTP::URI redirect to another Pool

Trying to use the sample code here (http://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/default.aspx/iRules/HTTP__uri.html) to do something that should be very simple:     when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [HTTP::uri] ends...

Thanks Hoolio...

 

 

can you confirm that I'm going about this correctly in terms of the configs (prior to the irule, as that seem to really be the simple part...)

 

 

Original Config:

 

 

Virtual Server - VIP (.5)

 

Content_Pool_2

 

Node 1 (.10)

 

Node 2 (.11)

 

 

simple iRule resource to redirect HTTP >> HTTPS

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

HTTP::redirect https://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]

 

}

 

 

 

result is a request to HTTP://x.x.x.5 gets switched to HTTPS:// and routed to either Node 1 or Node 2 based on least connections.

 

 

New Config (no virtual server assignment or association):

 

Content_Pool_1

 

Node 1 (.13)

 

 

result is a request to HTTP://x.x.x.5 gets switched to HTTPS:// and routed to either Node 1 or Node 2 based on least connections, and a request to HTTP://x.x.x.5/content1 gets switched to HTTPS:// and routed to Node 3

 

 

This is the New iRule:

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

if { [HTTP::uri] ends_with "content1" } {

 

pool content_pool_1}

 

 

HTTP::redirect https://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]

 

}
