EmployeeA very basic (host-agnostic) redirect iRule might look something like this (applied to the port 80 VIP):
when HTTP_REQUEST {
HTTP::redirect "https://www.def.123.com[HTTP::uri]"
}
Where [HTTP::uri] is the URI from the original request (if you need to keep that). This will take any request to the VIP and (blindly) redirect it. Or do you only need it to redirect if the requested host value is "abc.com" or "www.abc.com"?
when HTTP_REQUEST {
if { [string tolower [HTTP::host]] ends_with ".abc.com" } {
HTTP::redirect "https://www.def.123.com[HTTP::uri]"
}
}
If this VIP services a single (DNS) resolved host name, then all requests should technically be for abc.com or www.abc.com, and you could skip the HTTP::host evaluation.
