Setting header to signify https request

Hi there,

 

 

I have one https virtual server (443) that forwards on requests to a pool of servers on port 80. There is also a http virtual server (80) that sends requests on to the same pool of servers.

 

 

The application behind the https pool currently redirects to http, the developers have set their application to redirect to https if the X-Forwarded-Proto http header is set to = https.

 

 

I was wondering what iRule could be used to set X-Forwarded-Proto to equal https (similar to http://devcentral.f5.com/Forums/tabid/1082223/asg/50/showtab/groupforums/afv/topic/aff/5/aft/790661/Default.aspx)

 

for all requests that come into the https virtual server. I tried the one in that post with no success.

 

 

Thanks in advance,
