CirrusI would like to redirect this with a data group & irule.
Data group entry will be as below. ( I've multiple URIs that can redirected to different URLs,i just showed one Data group entry that needs to be redirected ) /us/e*/apple/mango/banana/grape.html data http://www.abc.com/rose/lilly/mo=ums.html
Where e* can be anything starts with a letter e
like e123,ea,eu,es1234 etc.
Employeei understand you have to walk through data group entry one by one and perform string match. if you are processing ton of concurrent requests, it may not be a good idea.
NacreousThis is one way you could do it.
foreach item [class match -value [HTTP::path] starts_with beginning] {
if {[HTTP::path] ends_with [class match -value $item equals ending]} {
HTTP::redirect [class match -value $item equals redirect]
return
}
}
Example: /us/e*/apple/mango/banana/grape.html
The first datagroup contains the first half of the pattern...
datagroup: beginning /use/e "2345 4563 9546 4354"The second datagroup contains the possible endings that match the first half. These are references by the numbers from the first half match above.
datagroup: ending 2345 /apple/mango/banana/grape.html4563 /pear/apple/ranga.html 9564 /kiwi/fruit/toast.html 4354 /orange/orange/orange.html
The third contains the redirects for the matching pairs. I have only included one for this example.There would be at least four to match the possible endings above.
datagroup: redirect 2345 http://www.abc.com/rose/lilly/mo=ums.htmlIt should do what you need however you will need to test and see how well it performs for you.
