Redirect or Append URI with a new path /newpath, for a https website.

What is the best way to handle an https site that requires authentications, but would like the F5 to append or redirect traffic to a new path?   https://exam.mycomp.com/ to https://exam.mycomp.com...

    You should be able to use the same iRule on your 443 virtual server as long as you apply a client SSL profile. If your servers on the back end are expecting SSL, then yes you will need to apply a server SSL profile as well. The standard serverssl profile will do in most cases unless the server is doing some kind of certificate based authentication.

Do I still need to check for [HTTP::path] eq "/" || [HTTP::path] eq "" ?
