rewrite address bar in browser

In the future, if you could post these types of questions to the iRules forum, then, you'll likey get a quicker response.

 

There are two types if url rewrites you can do with iRules. First a HTTP::redirect will issue a redirect HTTP response back to the browser. The browser will then in turn change the address bar and issue a new request. The following example will look for host requests to aaa.myzone.com and will issue a redirect to the browser keeping the URI intact but changing the host.

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {  
 switch [HTTP::host] {  
 "aaa.myzone.com" {  
 HTTP::redirect "http://bbb.mynewzone.com[HTTP::uri]"  
 }  
 }  
 }

 

Or, if you don't want to change the address bar, you can just modify the host value, you can do so with the following code

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {  
 switch [HTTP::host] {  
 "aaa.myzone.com" {  
 HTTP::header replace "Host" "bbb.mynewzone.com"  
 }  
 }  
 }

 

Hope this helps...
