iRule settings to simulate a virtual server setup
Hi all;
We've been moving our applications from our datacenter to the Azure cloud. I've deployed the F5 in Azure, but due to the one interface allowed I can only have one virtual server per protocol. Due to this I have to either deploy a Local Traffic Policy, or an iRule to create the customized settings for the virtual server. The first application is an Oracle application, and so I have to do two things, insert the WL-Proxy-SSL and then redirect to a pool, based on the URI received. The initial iRule I tried is:
when HTTP_REQUEST {
if { [string tolower [HTTP::host]] eq "cloudstuff.anywhere.com/p6" } {
HTTP::header insert WL-Proxy-SSL true
pool pool_cloudstuff.anywhere.com_7123
}
elseif { [string tolower [HTTP::host]] eq "cloudsstuff.anywhere.com" && "/" } {
HTTP::redirect "https://cloudstuff.anywhere.com/p6"
}
}
This doesn't work, the page cannot be found. Through some experimentation this does work:
when HTTP_REQUEST {
HTTP::header insert WL-Proxy-SSL true
if { [string tolower [HTTP::host]] eq "cloudstuff.anywhere.com/p6" } {
pool pool_cloudstuff.anywhere.com_7123
}
pool pool_cloudstuff.anywhere.com_7123
}
Even when I just use the first part and ignore the redirect it still doesn't work. This is the first time I've had to create an iRule, what I ame missing?
