Simple iRule redirect but looking for cleanest way

Hey guys i am back, so the irules you helped me with worked just as I wanted and i was asked to do but the code doesn't work with it and they can't figure it out. They are investigating but in the meantime i will need to do exact link redirects. So i will have to do a couple of irules on the same virtual server. One that i already have and works with sends mybi11g.company.com to mybi11g.cerner.com/analytics. now i have about 19 links that i will need to add a rule to on top of the one above. I need some help for this irule and what is the easiest way to get all 19 links in there. Examples are https://mybi.compan.com/saw.dll?DashboardPortalPath=/shared/Executive/portal/Executive redirect to https://mybi.company.com/analytics/saw.dll?DashboardPortalPath=/shared/Executive/portal/Executive basically insted of doing the irule to add analytics in the middle i just need a basic irule to say if it comes across as link 1 redirect to link 2. Now i have about 20 just like that. Ideas for best way?

    You can create a string data group with the source and target URIs to rewrite set as name=value pairs and then use the class command to perform the lookup. The iRule would look something like this assuming you name the data group uri_rewrite_dg. 

    
when HTTP_REQUEST {

set uri [class match -value [HTTP::uri] equals uri_rewrite_dg]
if {$uri ne ""}{
HTTP::uri $uri
}
}
