Hey,

 

Try this iRule,

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

  if {([string tolower [HTTP::uri]] contains "/xyz") and [string tolower [HTTP::host]] equals "abc"}{

    HTTP::redirect https://xyz;

  }

}

 

 

Also you can even try F5 Policy to match URI n redirect traffic.

 

Hope it helps !

Hi - this iRule doesn't look like it is redirecting traffic to second VIP. I can get the URL redirection done like your iRule if it needs to go through same VIP, however that's not what I want. Because I'm using different profile settings in second VIP for certain URI, I need it to go through second VIP.
