NimbostratusRemoving Start Path of URI and direct to pool
Hi.
I am trying to remove part of the URI Path ($Path2), and pass the $Subpaths to a specific pool
http://example.com/$Path2/$Subpath1,$Subpath2 - (Remove $Path2 & pass $Subpaths through) Pass to Pool2
http://example.com/$Path1 Pass to Pool1
I am using F5 LTM 11.4.1 and need to create a Policy or iRULE to manipulate the URI.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Try this:
when HTTP_REQUEST { Check the requested HTTP path switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::path]] { "/path1/*" { pool pool1 HTTP::path string map "/path1/ /" [HTTP::path]] } "/path2/*" { pool pool2 HTTP::path string map "/path2/ /" [HTTP::path]] } default { o nothing } } }
Victor_4983Hello Stanislas.
Thanks for your reply. I tried the following rule and it seemed to work. Not an iRULE expert so not sure which is the best option.
when HTTP_REQUEST { if { [HTTP::uri] starts_with "/Path1" } { HTTP::uri [string map {"/Path1/" "/"} [HTTP::uri]] pool /Partition/Name_Port2 } else { pool /Partition/Name_Port2 } }
Cheers, Victor

The switch is recommended if you have more than one condition based on the same variable.
If you only have one condition as in your irule, you can use "if" instead of "switch"
I advise you to use
to ignore the case.if { [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] starts_with "/path1" } - Victor_4983
OK thanks.
Might come in handy based on the customer requests.
