Mask Url....

I need to send to but it needs to stay the former. When i add anything to redirect I on the https virtual server I get to many redirects.

 

The last thing i tried was:

 

when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [HTTP::host] equals "; } { HTTP::redirect "/append" } } Any Ideas?

 

application delivery
iRules

    have you tried to use HTTP Local policies which make it easier than writing an irule?

    1.The best option in my opinion is to identify the overlapping redirects and remove it and make sure that the client & the server see the same URL. I haven't been able to understand the need for masking URL as a Network guy.

    2.If you still insist on masking, try something like this:

    when HTTP_REQUEST { 
if { ([HTTP::host] equals "www.xyz.com") and ([HTTP::uri] eq "/") } { 
HTTP::uri "/append" 
} 
} 
when HTTP_RESPONSE {
if { [HTTP::header values Location] contains "/append" } {
HTTP::header replace Location [string map {/append /} [HTTP::header value Location]]
}
}
