Hi,

You can use the following :

when HTTP_REQUEST {
 if { [HTTP::host] eq "abc.home.com" } {
  HTTP::respond 301 Location "https://xyz.office.com[HTTP::uri]"

Hi Yann, thanks for the response. Your irule worked perfectly for what I wanted to do but now the application guys have come back with an additional request :-( There is an authentication server in front of abc.home.com and what they want is any connection coming from that server to be allowed through. BUT if someone tries to go direct to abc.home.com then they need the redirect to xyz.office.com which you have already suggested. Any ideas? What is the best way to define the authentication server source? Any help appreciated.
