simple irule that does host redirect with wildcard

hi,

 

 

i'm in the process of retiring a domain and all websites behind it, so I need to redirect all of them to a new domain.

 

 

- so far I got this rule working, see code below,

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

if {[HTTP::host] contains www.abc.com}

 

{HTTP::redirect "HTTP://www.cde.com[HTTP::uri]"}

 

elseif {[HTTP::host] equals "abc.com"}

 

{HTTP::redirect }

 

}

 

 

but given the amount of sites I would like to make more general and use a wild card

 

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

if {[HTTP::host] contains *.abc.com}

 

{HTTP::redirect }

 

}

 

 

 

thanks,
