iRule HTML Maintenance Page insert URI Value

Oh yeah, for namespace reference, you can store into a variable and then use in a string:

Otherwise, you can access directly in a string using the brackets...

something here like log.local0 or whatever... "your uri is [HTTP::uri]"

fwadmin Do you plan on owning the old domain still once it has migrated? If you will keep the old domain I would bother with this page and would just perform a 301 redirect and leave it be. You might be able to add in an additional action to add in a referer HTTP header and allow the destination server to add in a pop-up saying the site changed and when the old name will no longer be used.

Thanks for the reply.  Yes, totally agree, so a redirect is what was first thought, but we want users to update their bookmarks and give them some time to do that; we wont be keeping the old domain.  So is it even possible to display the URI and or URL in the html code or would it be easier to just add a popup after redirected if they went to the old URL?

fwadmin - you got some heavy hitters here ( whisperer and Paulius and even JRahm sliding in with kudos).

Thanks for the help!  We ended up using the iFile option for the HTML portion of the page then defining a variable in the iRule for the URL and URI and refreceng those variable with $var_name.
