Irule for transparent redirect

[KJ_50941]

Hi, I need an iRule for transparent redirect, basically I have VIP in legacy floor which needs to send partial traiffic to another VIP for example application 1 while they are migration all applications to new servers..

will below irule works? is this transparent to Clinets? I am going to aplly below iRule on legacy VIP.

when HTTP_REQUEST {

switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::uri] ] { "/app/*" { HTTP::redirect “https://www.example.com[HTTP::uri]” } “/app2*” { HTTP::redirect “https:://www.example .com[HTTP::uri]” } }

Please help.

The HTTP::redirect command is NOT transparent to clients. It will send a 302 redirect back to the client browser, changing the address bar. To transparently change the URI without the client seeing it, use the HTTP::uri command.
