Hi,

I assume your existing virtual server is listening on on TCP/50100 and you have added a new one to listen on TCP/57701.

As all new connections to the old virtual server will match the port 50100 anyway you dont need to test the condition. Instead you just add the iRule to it: 
when HTTP_REQUEST {
   HTTP::redirect "https://abc.com:57701/irj/portal"
   return
}

The default pool can be removed.

Thanks, Stephan
