Hi Billy,

 

 

If that was the exact TCP::respond command you used, it couldn't have had the Server: BigIP header from the iRule. Maybe you have another iRule you saw that with?

 

 

Regardless, on 9.4.2 and higher, you can use HTTP::respond with the noserver flag to suppress the Server: BigIP header:

 

 

from http://devcentral.f5.com/wiki/default.aspx/iRules/http__respond

 

HTTP::respond 302 noserver Location "https://[HTTP::host][HTTP::uri]"
