Irule for Http redirect

Hi, I need some assistance in writing an irule for the following requirement for the http requests 1)Http://xyz.com redirect to "http://www.xyz.com" 2)If all the pool members are down - redirect "http://www.xyz.com" or "http://xyz.com" to "http://www2.xyz.com" 3)If LB_Failed then fall back to "http://www2.xyz.com" Is it recommended to have a single irule defined to match all the three requirements or 3 different irules for each requirements. Pls provide me with an irule definitions. Thanks, Raj

    Hi Raj,

     

     

    You can check the requested host using HTTP::host. You can send a redirect using HTTP::redirect "http://www.example.com/". You can use HTTP::fallback to set the fallback host. It would probably make sense to combine all of the logic in one rule.
