Simple I rule redirect

Hello,

 

I have created a vip that used http redirect to https. Right now I am using the default redirect irule

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

HTTP::redirect https://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]

 

}

 

 

so basically when the customer types in the following

 

 

http://abc.com/wfc/logon it automatically redirects to

 

 

https://abc.com/wfc/logon

 

 

Fine no issues there.

 

 

The customer would like though to be also to type in the following and have it redirect like this.

 

 

http://abc/wfc/logon

 

 

and have that redirect to

 

 

https://abc.com/wfc/logon.

 

 

I tried doing it on the port 80 part of the vip with

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

if { [HTTP::host] eq "abc" } {

 

HTTP::redirect "https://abc.com/wfc/logon"

 

}

 

}

 

 

That though did not work.

 

 

So do I put it on the 443 side on the vip. (I used the templates to set this up) or is my syntax screwed up here.

 

 

Thanks

 

 

Shawn

    I believe that SHOULD work. You may want to throw in some logging to see what the BIG-IPs sees as the [HTTP::host] value, but otherwise: 

    
when HTTP_REQUEST {
     if { [string tolower [HTTP::host]] equals "abc" } {
          HTTP::redirect "https://abc.com[HTTP::uri]"
     } else {
          HTTP::redirect https://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]
     }
}
