URL forwarding

Hi all,

 

 

anyone knows how to accomplish URL forwarding based on L7 content - like streaming.

 

is there a way to do it with iRule?

 

 

on my site, i have a proxy that fetches the web site and caching it for performance

 

if a new request comes which the proxy doesn't hold cache for it it redirects it to other proxy to fetch the site.

 

 

i would like to use this setup behind F5 machine.
