EmployeeAgain, completely depends on your configuration. The HTTP::redirect command issues a physical redirect (via 302 message) to the client. This is what you're doing in your last iRule if the URI doesn't start with "/test". As for the port 8080 business, your pool should define the back end servers by IP and this port. Port translation on the VIP will take care of sending traffic to port 8080. If, however (and this is rare but it happens), the server expects to see this port in the request Host header (ex. Host = www.example.com:8080), then you need to modify the Host header on the way in.
