Redirect iRule to Dynamic URL?

Hi PacketHead,

Sure you can do something like that. You can match on however much of the HTTP::uri you need to to insure it is a qualified match and then perform a redirect.

Something like this:

 when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] contains "/vbapp/customer=" } { HTTP::redirect "http://hosted99.com[HTTP::uri]" } } 

This is not the only method that you have at your disposal. There are many ways to perform the same type of thing if you want an alternate solution.

Hope this helps.

Hello Michael,

Thanks for the reply. So given the script you provided the redirect URL will be as follows:

http://hosted99.com/vbapp/customer=8745/login.aspx

The script you provided will automatically take the remaining part of the incoming URL (/vbapp/customer=8745/login.aspx) and add it to the end of the new redirect URL http://hosted99.com making it a complete URL of http://hosted99.com/vbapp/cusotmer=8745/login.aspx?

Hopefully I am understanding correctly.

Thanks again,

James
