Redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS://domain/owa

Morning All.

 

 

I am trying to write a iRule to redirect all traffic hitting a virtual server listening on port 80 to a https://domain.co.uk/owa.

 

 

I have been reading through some examples so wanted to sound out my code (little green when it comes to iRules).

 

 

 

when HTTP_RESPONSE {

 

HTTP::redirect "https://webmail.domain.co.uk/owa"

 

}

 

 

 

So when a user goes to http://webmail.domain.co.uk/owa its is redirected to https://webmail.domain.co.uk/owa. (I am happy that any request to http://webamail.domain.co.uk is redirected to the https url).

 

 

If anyone can shine some light on what I have, if you can explain it if I am wrong as well.

 

 

Thank you very much for reading and more thanks if you help me out :-)

 

 

Regards

 

 

Col.

    Welcome to the forums.

    First of all, it's imperative to use the right "event" for your iRule. In this case, you want to use HTTP_REQUEST. HTTP_RESPONSE happens once the F5 LTM receives a response from your pool members.

    Give this a shot. It'll send whatever the user requests to the same URL but over HTTPS. If instead you'd like to change the hostname or URI, simply change it below. üòâ 

    
when HTTP_REQUEST {
   HTTP::redirect "https://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]" }
