looking for an opinion on this https redirect irule

I am assumig you don't want to actually redirect them to the URL/URI they originally requested, so rather than redirect, I made the action to simply send the traffic to the relevant pool name. In this example, a pool named "whatever." Using switch will allow you to expand the concept should you require other redirects later.

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

set host [string tolower [HTTP::host]]

 

if { $host = "www.placeone.com" || "placeone.com" } {

 

switch [HTTP::uri] {

 

"/" { HTTP::respond 301 Location "https://www.placetwo.com/subplace/" }

 

default { pool whatever }

 

}

 

}
