Hi,

Can you try this iRule in browser's incognito mode?

when HTTP_REQUEST {
    if {[string tolower [HTTP::host]] starts_with "www."}{
        log local0. "hostname = [HTTP::host]"
        HTTP::redirect "https://[substr [HTTP::host] 4][HTTP::uri]"
    }
}

Hi eaa,

This is strange that when I apply that iRule I don't see a log entry inside of /val/log/ltm for what I'm expecting hostname = www.abc.company.com. The only thing that I see is that the SSL Handshake failed which mean that for some reason it is skipping this irule. Any ideas as to why? The only thing that is different on this VS is that there is a pool assosiated with this and the other VS doesn't.

Thanks

  Sounds like the ssl handshake fails because the CN name on the certificate doesn't match once you trim it?

  It doesn't seem to execute the iRule that eaa provided me at all because I'm not able to see log entries for the hostname inside of the log. All I see is the SSL Handshake failures.

  You see the failures on the ltm log or packet capture?
