Rewrite/Hide URL

I believe the reason the why the ltm policy might fail for https is because of the location header thats there in the response coming from the server. When the incoming connection is https to the virtual, the decryption happens and then the requests are sent over http channel to the backend server (if your backend server is http). Which inturn would have a Redirection Location header specifying its following on http protocol, whereas the actual client came in https. Thus fails.

I think as long as the backend server is running on https and on the same port as of the https virtual port, this is achievable.

Also if possible, try to achieve this through Irule, by replacing the host header in the http request -

HTTP::header replace host "www.google.com"

And forward the traffic directly to that particular pool.

Also share your existing rewrite profile settings.
