replace irule with HTTP redirect-rewrite

Hi,

 

 

We have one appplication ruuning as the way below:

 

 

client---proxy(443)----(Port 443) F5----------(Port 8443) real server.

 

 

SSL is running:

 

 

between client and proxy on port 443

 

between proxy and F5 on port 443

 

Between proxy and real server on port 8443

 

 

 

We developed one irule as below for HTTP redirect rewrite;

 

 

rule PP_IRULE_TEST {

 

when HTTP_RESPONSE {

 

Check if server response is a redirect

 

if { [HTTP::header is_redirect]} {

 

Log original and updated values

 

log local0. "Original Location header value: [HTTP::header value Location],\

 

updated: [string map ":[TCP::remote_port]/ /" [HTTP::header value Location]]"

 

Do the update, replacing :8443/ with / (where 8443 is the pool member's port)

 

HTTP::header replace Location [string map ":[TCP::remote_port]/ /" [HTTP::header value Location]] }

 

 

As somebody advised that HTTP redirect-rewrite can do the same thing.

 

 

So we create a HTTP profile which change redirect-rewrite option to "ALL".

 

 

But it looks like the application doesn't like the HTTP profile at all.

 

 

Anybody can help to give me a clue why HTTP profile doesn't work the same way as irule?

 

 

 

Thank you very much!!
