Using a redirect will change the URL on the browser.
Changing the Host header only affects what the server gets.
You will need the IP address of la.mysite.com, say it is 1.2.3.4
You will need an irule like this:
when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [HTTP::uri] equals "/" } { the node command directs the request to the server whether or not it is behind the BigIP. Make sure the BigIP has a route to that server. node 1.2.3.4 In case you don't have SNAT on the virtual, you may need it here. snat automap In case the server complains, set the host header. HTTP::header replace Host "la.mysite.com" Finally change the URI while on its way to server. HTTP::uri /documents/china.pdf } }
Here is the page for the SNAT command:
