Using the solution above user won't see the remapped URI in the browser bar, this is a silent method as the header replacement happens in F5 without user's having any awareness of the modifications made.

As it's a redirect to another service (from HTTP to HTTPS), you might be better off trying something as follows:

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 if {[HTTP::host] contains "timesheet"} {
   HTTP::respond 302 Location "https://[HTTP::host]/wfc/navigator/logonWithUID"
   event disable all
   TCP::close
   log local0.info "Redirected [IP::client_addr] to https://[HTTP::host]/wfc/navigator/logonWithUID"
   }
 }

Also, can you please provide outputs from the commands below:

 1) (From any device besides F5) curl -vI https://your-service.com
 2) (From F5) curl -vI http://pool-member:xxxx

Thank you for your time and attention. I tried the iRule script provided above. The browser responded with "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" and the address in the address bar did not change from the test URL entered. The F5 log had the following message repeated dozens of times: "Rule ir_timesheet-test_HTTPStoHTTPS_URI_ADD : Redirected 10.220.188.89 to https://uslv-timesheet-test.xxxxx.com/wfc/navigator/logonWithUID" How do I use the curl statements to provide the output you are requesting?
