NimbostratusURI redirect to different port
Hello,
I have the following scenario where I'm trying to edit the URI on the client side but doesn't exist on the web server.
1 VS with multiple hosts going to there respective pools.
Here is the current iRule config:
when HTTP_REQUEST {
switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::host]] {
"api.site.com" {
switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] {
"/xyz/*" {
pool xyz
}
default {
pool default
}
}
}
"api-qa.site.com" {
switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] {
"/xyz/*" {
pool xyzqa
}
default {
pool defaultqa
}
}
}
default {
reject
}
}
}
What I need to do is create a URI that gets appended before the actual path to act as a redirect to a different port.
So for example api.site.com/abc/xyz that gets directed to pool abc with the different ports. However the server is still expecting to receive api.site.com/xyz. Everything I've tried I keep getting a 404 error as the internal server doesn't recognize /abc/xyz.
Is it possible to get /abc/xyz to get redirected on the webserver to go to /xyz and keep /abc/xyz as what the user sees in the browser?

Hello
you can try this irule:
when HTTP_REQUEST { HTTP::header insert "SetContextURI" "http://[HTTP::host][HTTP::path]" HTTP::path [string map {/abc/xyz /xyz} [HTTP::path]] STREAM::disable HTTP::header remove "Accept-Encoding" } when HTTP_RESPONSE { STREAM::expression {@/abc/xyz@/xyz@} Enable the stream filter for this response only STREAM::enable re-write Location header HTTP::header replace Location [string map {/abc/xyz /xyz} [HTTP::header Location]] }Don't forget to activate stream profile in your VS.
Let me now if you need help.
Regards,
