Newbie IRule Question on Redirects

Hi jackster,

Try this:

when HTTP_REQUEST {
if { [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] starts_with "/1" } {
HTTP::uri "/inside.corp.mycompany.com"
}
}

This will not change the URI in the browser. It will change the URI that is sent to the server.

The Browser will show: http://http://test.corp.mycompany.com/1

The Server will receive: http://test.corp.mycompany.com/inside.corp.mycompany.com

So you may want to analyze what you are wanting. You might want to change the the iRule to this:

 
when HTTP_REQUEST {
if { [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] starts_with "/1" } {
HTTP::redirect "http://inside.corp.mycompany.com"
}
}

This will redirect you to a different website (http://inside.corp.mycompany.com).

Hope this helps.
