Nimbostratus
Nimbostratusurl redirect to different pool
Hello everyone,
I'm new to this forum and need some help in creating an irule.
Currently running BIG-IP Kernel 4.6.2 Build117 and need to redirect a url
(http://xml.company-corporate.net/client.asp) to another pool(lappr80). Not sure if I'm did this correctly but wanted to see if anyone can provide some assistance.
if (HTTP_REQUEST == http://xml.company-corporate.net/client.asp) {
use pool lappr80
}
else {
discard
}
Please help.
Thanks,
- You'll want to use the http_host and http_uri variables
if (http_host equals "xml.company-corporate.net" and http_uri starts_with "/client.asp") { use pool lappr80 } else { discard }
Check out the BIG-IP product manual for other relational operators you can use (ends_with, contains, matches_regex, etc).

Victor_Im_96299I modified this rule a little bit so that traffic from "xml.company-corporate.net" redirects to another url "http://cache.company.com/client.asp" with the pool(lappr80). Would this rule below work? I cant do any testing of this rule because of it being on a production environment.
Do the spaces inbetween each line of the rule affect how the rule works?
if (http_host equals "xml.company-corporate.net"
and http_uri starts_with "/client.asp") {
redirect to "http://cache.company.com/client.asp"
} else {
discard
}
or like
if (http_host equals "xml.company-corporate.net"
and http_uri starts_with "/client.asp") {
redirect to "http://cache.company.com/client.asp"
} else {
discard
}
Any input or help is appreciatd.
Thanks,
