irule http to https redirect with a little nuance

Jon,

1. You mentioned the host "sysdev" in the phrase about the bookmark. Did you mean "sysdev" or "sysdev.x.com"?
2. Keep in mind that "/" can usually also be accessed as "/default.aspx". You'll want to plan for both.
3. The Big-IP can be a great tool for forcing people to certain destinations, but in this case I'm wondering if the best solution wouldn't be to configure the log-in in the web.config file.
