How to display maintenance page when server is down (redirect web traffic)?
Good day,
For a specific client we require, from the BIG-IP side, to redirect/show a maintenance page while a server(node) is unavailable. I found this article which I think it could help us https://devcentral.f5.com/questions/http-redirect-when-pool-is-down but it does not load, I get an HTTP 404 response.
General detail for scenario:
- We only have ASM and LTM modules.
- We are running BIG-IP version 13.1.
- We have multiples servers protected by our WAF, so we need probably an iRule to display/redirect a custom HTML page while a specific node is down instead of not loading web content.
If there is another way besides an iRule we would also appreciate it and would like to try it.
If the only way is through an iRule what would be the appropriate syntax?
