Hi Dhananjay,

You can use an iRule to be more selective on which redirects to rewrite: 

 
  when HTTP_RESPONSE { 
  
     Check if server response is a redirect 
    if { [HTTP::header is_redirect] and [string tolower [HTTP::header Location]] contains "abc.com"} { 
  
        Log original and updated values 
       log local0. "Original Location header value: [HTTP::header value Location],\ 
          updated: [string map -nocase "http:// https://" [HTTP::header value Location]]" 
  
        Do the update, replacing myold.hostname.com with mynew.hostname.com 
       HTTP::header replace Location [string map -nocase "http:// https://" [HTTP::header value Location]] 
    } 
 }
