    Hi Adnankhan,

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
	switch [HTTP::host] {
		"abc.org" -
		"def.org" -
		"ghi.org" {
			HTTP::respond 301 Location "http://xyz.com[HTTP::uri]"
			return
		}
	}
}

    Hi Adnankhan,

    I guess your test client's traffic isn't pass over F5.

    Can you review the logs and tcpdump?

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
	log local0. "vslog1 | CIP: [IP::client_addr] | Host: [HTTP::host]"
	switch [HTTP::host] {
		"abc.org" {
			log local0. "vslog2 | CIP: [IP::client_addr] | Host: [HTTP::host]"
			HTTP::respond 301 Location "http://xyz.com[HTTP::uri]"
			return
		}
	}
}

    logs:

    tail -f /var/log/ltm | grep vslog

    tcpdump:

    tcpdump -ni 0.0 host <virtualserverIP> and host <clientIP>
