iRule to redirect to Pool

We need to add an addendum to an existing iRule that will search for a URL/URI string and send those requests to a different F5 pool. If any of the following URL/URI combinations passes, we want to send them to the ESCMYURI_POOL.

 

 

https://mydomain.com/wps/myportal/escmyuri

 

https://mydomain.com/wps/portal/escmyuri

 

https://mydomain.com/wps/myportal/esccmyuri

 

https://mydomain.com/wps/portal/esccmyuri

 

 

Also, can we do this using the global switch command?

 switch [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] { 
     "wps/myportal/escmyuri" { 
                               pool X} 
     "wps/portal/escmyuri { 
                               pool Y} 
     defaut { 
               ESCMYURI_POOL}

    you can use the -glob option if you need : Click here

    Also, if you want to ensure that it's a particular domain AND a particular URI, you can expand the above example slightly to look for both: 

     
 when HTTP_REQUEST { 
   switch "[HTTP::host][string tolower [HTTP::uri]]" { 
     "mydomain.com/wps/myportal/escmyuri" - 
     "mydomain.com/wps/portal/escmyuri" - 
     "mydomain.com/wps/myportal/esccmyuri" -  
     "mydomain.com/wps/portal/esccmyur" - 
     default { pool ESCMYURI_POOL } 
   } 
 }
