Virtual Server port 443 to port 5307 redirection

I have a client requesting that all requests to virtual server w.x.y.z:443 get redirected to w.x.y.z:5307. I am familiar with http to https redirection but not quite sure how to do the iRule for this redirection. Any help would be appreciated.

You will have to do SSL offload to be able to do an HTTP redirect; if you are not decrypting at the LTM then you will not be able to invoke the HTTP_REQUEST event in a rule.

But if you are doing SSL offload the rule should be simple:

when HTTP_REQUEST { HTTP::redirect "https://w.x.y.z:5307" }

EDIT: The redirect could be https:// or http:// depending on what's required for 5307
