NimbostratusReverse Proxy Problems
Hello
I'm trying to create a reverse proxy in my F5 BIG-IP. I'm having problems with the redirection to another port.
What i'm doing is this...
the user connects to a VS (in port 80)... then with an IRule i change the uri and assign a pool depending on the http_request uri... but the real servers are listening in a different port (in my case 50000)... my problem is redirecting not only to a different pool but to another port...
do i have to create another vs listening in port 50000.
Thanks in advance...

That's the Host header value he's checking for xpro.xx.tt, so it wouldn't have a forward slash in it.

Pedro_MinasThe Address Translation and the port translation options are both Enabled...
I'm not seeing any error in the /var/log/ltm... with the tcpdump i only see the requests from the client side... and i don't see any requests being sent to the server... the only thing going to the server are the icmp packets (node monitor)...
Michael_YatesDoh! That's what I get for thinking and not looking.
Attention to detail got me.
I thought it was for [HTTP::uri].- Pedro_MinasThanks guys...
I've solved the issue... it was a problem in the configuration of the real servers Vlan in the F5...
Now it's redirecting properly the requests... from the F5 to the real servers...
