Odd issue with pools and a redirect

Also note that if you want LTM to rewrite the server redirects from http://backendserver1.com.au:82/site1 to /site1 (ie, make the redirect a local reference without the protocol, host or port), you could check for a redirect using HTTP::is_redirect and check the Location header value for backendserver1 or some other incorrect value:

 
 when HTTP_RESPONSE { 
  
     Check if response is a redirect 
    if {[HTTP::is_redirect]}{ 
  
        Check if Location header has :82/ in it 
       if {[HTTP::header Location] contains ":[TCP::server_port]/"}{ 
  
           Rewrite the location header. Use getfield to split the header value on the string ":82/" 
   where 82 is the server port.  Prepend a forward slash as it will be removed by getfield 
  HTTP::header replace Location "/[getfield [HTTP::header Location] ":[TCP::server_port]/" 2]" 
       } 
    } 
 } 
 

The browser will use the original protocol and host to generate the next request to the local Location URI.
