(should be) simple request ?

First thing is if you aren't offloading SSL, you won't be able to do this.

As long as you are, then this should work:

 
 when HTTP_REQUEST { 
    if { ([HTTP::host] eq "service1.company.com") && ([HTTP::uri] eq "/services/service.asmx") } { 
       HTTP::redirect "https://service2.company.com/services/service.asmx" 
       log local0. "Whatever you want to log here" 
    } 
 } 
 

I would not use the log in production if possible, only for debugging.

Thanks, Denny -

 

Actually, I got it working (sort of) - at least as far as what I asked for (chuckle)

 

I used this, with the CLIENT_ACCEPTED, and logging statements in for debugging.

 

However, reading deeper into the forums has indicated I may need need to do something much different.

 

Our app is written such that a customer will be posting data to the asmx pages that comprise the service, and the POST data doesn't appear to be being sent through.

 

Troubleshooting this is difficult, as I can't easily build a test for it... My tools that we use to test don't like it when I use 'Fiddler' or other web debuggers which proxy the https connection.

 

when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {

 

set info "client { [IP::client_addr]:[TCP::client_port] -> [IP::local_addr]:[TCP::local_port] }"

 

log local0. $info

 

}

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

log local0. "REQUEST Host: [HTTP::host], URI: [HTTP::uri]"

 

if { [string tolower [HTTP::host]] eq "service1.company.com"} {

 

log local0. "Host: [HTTP::host] matched service1 check"

 

HTTP::redirect "https://service2.company.com[HTTP::uri]"

 

log local0. "REDIRECTING TO : https://service2.company.com[HTTP::uri]"

 

}

 

}

Hmm...yes I don't think POST's "survive" redirects well in a lot of cases.

 

 

Here's the only posts I found so far on here:

Based on those, I think the only thing you could do would be to use HTTP::collect and then in HTTP_REQUEST_DATA send the traffic directly to a node that handles service2.company.com (similar to the rule in the 2nd post there).
