Find the below details.&nbsp;Rule 1: It will simply forward the HTTP request to HTTPS. if the request will come from client i.e. http://www.xyz.com:8080/index.php then F5 iRule will redirect to 'https://www.xyz.com:8080/index.php' without changing 8080 port.&nbsp;Rule 2: It is intelligent irule comparably 1st one. if the request will come from client i.e. http://www.xyz.com:8080/index.php&nbsp;then request will redirect to 'https://www.xyz.com/index.php'&nbsp;Thanks
