NimbostratusInclude a small image on the offline page
Hi all,
Hope somebody can help me.
We are using BIG-IP V10.2.4 and I would like add an image to the offline page in addition to our existing textual offline message. Below is the irule of our current offline page:
when HTTP_REQUEST { \
HTTP::respond 200 content {
Customer site unavailable
The customer website is currently unavailable.
we are working on the site anf hope to have it resolved shortly.
please check back again soon or telephone us.
}
}
In addition to the above text we would like to add a small image of our company on the top-left side of the page.
What are the steps and procedures that I'm going to do.
Cheers,
OG

Brian_Van_StoneYou may also want to respond with a 503 so that search engine crawlers don't index this page.

Good point Brian. If you do want to use a 200, make sure to set cache-control no-cache and pragma no-cache:
HTTP::respond 200 content $content Cache-Control No-Cache Pragma No-Cache

f5_user_7996Hi,
How can I put converted 64 version of the image to the data group, will it be per line or at once?

Check this example on the class wiki page:

This example extracts an base64 encoded image from a class to send in an HTTP response when load balancing failed:
