URL redirection

Hi Team,

 

Hope you all are doing great.

 

I have one doubt, i have one URL say http://csllabc-dweb/webtop/*  which point towards IP 10.51.50.1 (not hosted on F5) and it should redirect to another URL say https://dctmminap.abc.com/webtop/* which point to another IP 10.69.70.2 (hosted on F5).

 

Will it be taken care from DNS end ? Like they will delete existing A record and create CNAME record where csllabc-dweb will point towards our WIDE IP name (GTM).

    Hi,

     

    Usually, when using BigIP DNS / GTM, you should have a dedicated zonel. I guess from your example,

    abc.com is the zone handled by GTM (NS records of this zone are pointing to your GTM resolvers.

    Once done, change the original DNS record csllabc-dweb from A record to a CNAME to dctmminap.abc.com, then it's done.
