Irule for multiple links in the same website

So will the users first come to http://abc.test.com.uk on port 80 and then click on the link and send the request to http://abc.test.com.uk:10000 and you wan't the redirection to happen there? Or do you want the links themselves to be rewritten on the page to https://def.test.com instead?

Thanks Henrik for the reply.

The users will first connect https://def.test.com.uk via 443. Once logon, they will click the internal link

http://abc.test.com.uk:10000/dir -> which should be redirected to their end as https://def.test.com.uk/dir.

http://abc.test.com.uk:10000/dir/repository.jlp ->>>> https://def.test.com.uk/dir/repository.jlp

Our requirement is, the hostname which is abc.test.com.uk and port no 10000 should not be visible for the users.

Thank you.

Apologies. Forgot to update.

We are using BIG IP V11.4.0 Build 2454.0

Ok, now I understand. So what you probably want to do is so that the links shouldn't even contain http://abc.test.com.uk:10000/dir but rather point to https://def.test.com.uk/dir instead. In some applications it's actually possible to configure so that the application is aware that it resides behind an ADC and allows you to configure the external address.

In case that possibility doesn't exist there is always the option to let the BIG-IP rewrite the pages so that the internal URL:s is translated to the external one. This is easiest accomplished with the stream profile.

Basically what you do is to configure the profile to look for http://abc.test.com.uk:10000 and replace with https://def.test.com.uk.

Oh, and another thing - I would recommend that you also enable a http compression profile on the virtual server, since that prevents the servers behind the BIG-IP to respond with compressed data. If the data is compressed the BIG-IP won't be able find the string to be replaced.
