irule url host replacement

Hello team,

We have an appplication changing it's url from  url.domain.com to newurl.domain.com

https://url.domain.com/<PATH> -> https://newurl.domain.com/<PATH>

I am wounder if we can replace host url of all incoming trafic and redirecting to new urls:

Example of incoming Urls:

https://url.domain.com/home/das/2134

https://url.domain.com/dashboard/login.aspx

Desired result:

https://newurl.domain.com/home/das/2134

https://newurl.domain.com/dashboard/login.asp

In fact we need to keep all URLs as it is except main host URL that need to be replaced

Thank you

  • Fernando_M I believe what you're looking for is the following. I believe the only gotcha would be that you are perform SSL termination on that virtual server and you have an HTTP profile associated to it and then add this iRule to the virtual server in question. If you need this on the HTTP side you can use the same iRule as long as your intent is to keep everyone on HTTPS.

    when HTTP_REQUEST priority 500 {
    
        if { [HTTP::host] == "url.domain.com" } {
            HTTP::redirect "https://newurl.domain.com/[HTTP::uri]"
        }
    
    }
