Redirect single URL (hostname) only.

i need to redirect single (none wildcard) from www.abc.com to def.ghk.lmn.com

This is a single URL. Please do not redirect any traffic for sub folders or other URLs in the domain.

My below irule is not working. please advise what is wrong with it. i appreciate your input.

when HTTP_REQUEST {

  if {[HTTP::host] equals "www.abc.com"}{

    if {not ([HTTP::uri] starts_with "/")}{

      HTTP::redirect "https://def.ghk.lmn.com"

    }

  }

}

Thanks

  • ​your irule works perfectly. I appreciate your input and thanks for your support.

  • Hello Hien.

    Try this:

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
      if {[getfield [HTTP::host] : 1] equals "www.abc.com"}{
        if {not ([HTTP::uri] starts_with "/")}{
          HTTP::redirect "https://def.ghk.lmn.com[HTTP::uri]"
        }
      }
    }

    Remember that, base on your initial idea, redirection won't occur if you use this URL

    https://www.abc.com/

    And i should work if you use any other

    https://www.abc.com/*

    Regards,

    Dario.

  • Alternatively,

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
     if {([string tolower [HTTP::host]] eq "www.abc.com") and ( [HTTP::uri] eq "/" ) }{
     HTTP::respond 301 Location "https://def.ghk.lmn.com"
     return
        }
     }
