Redirect or Append URI with a new path /newpath, for a https website.

What is the best way to handle an https site that requires authentications, but would like the F5 to append or redirect traffic to a new path?   https://exam.mycomp.com/ to https://exam.mycomp.com...

    You should be able to use the same iRule on your 443 virtual server as long as you apply a client SSL profile. If your servers on the back end are expecting SSL, then yes you will need to apply a server SSL profile as well. The standard serverssl profile will do in most cases unless the server is doing some kind of certificate based authentication.

Try to obtain the certificate and private key from the server in question. Then load that into your LTM and apply it to a client SSL profile. Then apply that client SSL profile to your 443 virtual server.
