NimbostratusStumped on iRule for SSL traffic
Hi,
I seem to be stumped here. I have an iRule that does re-direction based on HTTP:HOST.
when HTTP_REQUEST {
if { [HTTP::host] starts_with "billing.domain.com"} {
...
The Host header is part of the payload and unless the BIG-IP is terminating the SSL connection, there is no way for it to read the payload for the header. So, yes, if you want to make decisions based on the payload content, the only option is to terminate the SSL connection on the BIG-IP.
