Responce URI Masking/Hiding

We would like to consult on the possibility of performing a URL rewrite with the use of an iRule for domain.com. it’s not a good practice for our homepage to show as http://www.domain.com/home/default...

You'd probably want to add a check so that you only rewrite requests to a URI of / to /home/default.htm: 

 
 when HTTP_REQUEST { 
  
     Check if requested URI is / and requested host is www.example.com  
    if {[HTTP::uri] eq "/" and [string tolower [HTTP::host]] eq "www.example.com" 
  
        Rewrite URI to /home/default.htm 
       HTTP::uri "/home/default.htm" 
    } 
 }
