redirerect based on CONNECT hostname

Hi,     can anyone tell me how to get the intended recipient of an HTTPS CONNECT request in an irule. i have been assuming that there would be an HTTP::host header as part of the CONNECT method ...

yes, there is a URI header, i guess that I'm going to have to treat CONNECT's different to other standard HTTP methods?

 

 

following from this then, is it the case that there *will* be a host header on the inside of the encrypted connection? i was hoping to not have to decrypt the data on the assumption that the host header was only going to be on the outside.
