Redirect a subdomain to a sub directory of the root domain

Hey all,

i have been asked to redirect a sub domain to a sub directory of the root domain - any pointers on what type of IRule to use?

for instance we want to redirect xxxx.aaaa.com to aaaa.com/zzzzz

Thanks!

Following should do what you are asking for::

when HTTP_REQUEST {
  if { [HTTP::host] contains "xxxx.aaaa.com"} {
    HTTP::redirect "http://aaaa.com/zzzzz"
  }
}
