NimbostratusiRule for URI / HOST based Pool redirection. (w. option to not offload SSL).
Hello,
Both new to F5 and iRules here.
Been trying to make an iRule in an F5 BIG-IP LTM 1600 for a few days.
Started of from this one ...
when HTTP_REQUEST {
switch -glob [HTTP::path] {
...
I will address the option to not terminate SSL on the F5. I am assuming that the virtual server configured is setup to listen on port 443 and has an SSL profile with a valid SSL certificate? Any client that initiates the connection to this virtual server will be forced to establish an SSL connection. After the connection is established, your can redirect to a non-ssl virtual server. If you want the backend servers you have to terminate the SSL connection, you have to use the Performance Layer 4 virtual server type, but you lose most of your HTTP processing via iRules.
