NimbostratusURL redirection
Hi. I was wondering if is it possiable to have an iRule to redirect a specific url to another url with a diffrent port.
Example : The common url is and i would like to redirect this to one of the pool member which has this url .
Is this possiable to do on an iRule. Can;t seem to get eny ideas on this.
Michael_YatesHi Ghani,
Port translation is enabled by default on a Virtual Server. If it is not enable it you can enable the checkbox and update the Virtual Server configuration.
After it is configured the Virtual Server will automatically provide port translation from whatever port the Virtual Server is configured for (80, 443, etc.) to the port specified in the target pool.
Hope this helps.
Ghani_32565Hi. thanks for the quick reply. One quick question. Does this apply if the servers are configure to listen on diffrent e.g 7780....hence i configure the VS to be on port 80? I'm just kinda of confuse on the port translation option here. thanks in advance...appreciate it...- Ghani_32565Hi. thanks for the quick reply. One quick question.

the following is an example. you can see client sending request to 172.28.19.79 port 7780.
New TCP connection 1: 192.168.206.55(50807) <-> 172.28.19.79(7780)
and bigip sends that request to server which is listening on port 8791.
