Detecting https in HTTP_REQUEST
Denny
Thanks, I see you used when HTTP_REQUEST event in your iRule. The problem is if use this event, than I must have to use HTTP profile with VS which will intern not trigger maintenance page without doing ssl bridging.
The second option I can utilize is hosting maintenance page on an external server and route traffic to that server in case the VS goes down. Not sure if it is possible without SSL bridging.?

there are 2 virtual servers, aren't there? the http profile is in the internal virtual server (i.e. not the external one which is facing users).
Hi Nitass, while testing I noticed that after the pool member comes back online and I try to refresh the page the maintenance page stays there. I have to wait for about minute or two to navigate to actual server page after i refresh a page. Do you know how can i quickly navigate to page when the server comes back online and after i press refresh. ?

did the refresh create a new tcp connection? if you run tcpdump, you should see new tcp 3-way handshake.
refresh does not create a new tcp connection. Only saw ack and no syn packets and also when I hit refresh the traffic came with a VLAN 0, whereas after sometime I closed the browser and re-opened it and also used another browser VLAN 333 came up in tcpdump and page loaded successfully.
