iRule for Http redirect

Hi Raj,

If you have an 'any port' virtual server that can receive HTTP and HTTPS traffic you can add a client SSL profile and then disable it for requests to an HTTPS port. Assuming you have a pool defined on port 0 (any), you can use a rule like this:

 
 when CLIENT_ACCEPTED { 
  
     Check the requested port 
    switch [TCP::local_port] { 
       80 { 
           HTTP request, redirect to HTTPS using the same URI 
  
           Check if Host header value has a length 
          if {[string length [HTTP::host]]}{ 
  
              Redirect to the requested host and URI (minus the port if specified) 
             HTTP::redirect https://[getfield [HTTP::host] ":" 1][HTTP::uri] 
  
          } else { 
  
              Redirect to VIP's IP address 
             HTTP::redirect https://[IP::local_addr][HTTP::uri] 
          } 
       } 
       443 { 
           HTTPS request.  Disable client SSL profile to prevent decryption 
          SSL::disable 
       } 
       default { 
           Request to undefined port.  Take some default action? 
  
   Send a reset? 
           reject 
  
   Drop the request? 
           drop 
       } 
    } 
 } 
 

If this doesn't work as you'd expect for your scenario, you can add debug logging to determine what's happening.
