Using LTM Policy to Redirect Host But Preserving Original URI
I am looking for some guidance and hopefully the community can help. We are trying to perform a host redirect using an LTM policy. The requirements are as follows: If URL contains uri /thisuri, forward request to pool http_server. If URL contains uri that is not /thisuri, redirect request to https://www.domain.com/[orginal_uri] We managed to configure our LTM policy to do everything except preserve the URI in the original request if URI is not /thisuri. Is preserving the URI from the original client request even possible when using an LTM policy? Has anyone tried doing something like this before? Our current logic is like this (we are using first match policy strategy): 1.test_uri_redirect Match all the following conditions HTTP URI > path > is > any of > /thisuri at request time. Do the following when the traffic is matched Forward Traffic > to pool > /Common/https_server > at request time. 2.test_host_redirect Match all the following conditions HTTP URI > path > is not > any of > /thisuri > at request time. Do the following when the traffic is matched Redirect > to location https://www.domain.com > at request time. All that we are missing is how to tell the BIG-IP to preserve the original URI path. Any help would be much appreciated.
Best method to rewrite Request and Response URI, preserve URI data, and with no client redirect
Looking for the best method (iRule, HTTP Class, etc) to rewrite URI while preserving the trailing data in the URI and ensuring that no client redirect occurs. I also need to insert a header in the mix of all this. Client request - https://www.site.com/123 F5 Rewrite - Request - https://www.site.com/123 to https://www.site.com/321 Insert Header SetContextURI: http://www.site.com/123 F5 Rewrite - Response - https://www.site.com/321/blah/data (Preserve Data) to https://www.site.com/123/Blah/data I have looked at several options, but none bring both the Request, Response, and header insert together or will do a client redirect.
