NimbostratusWhat/Where are the built-in variables for LTM?
Can someone show me where (pdf) or what are the built-in variables for LTM. Looking to do some custom irules and would like to use the built-in variables.

I don't think there is a pdf for that.. Are you looking for specific variables? like AD Auth, etc..
DAGOATMAMBA_328im looking for redirects....if there is no matching host on the HTTP endpoint, return a redirect to the client for them to try the same request on the HTTPS endpoint.

iRules are an extension to Tcl, all built in commands can be found on the iRule Wiki:

Hi,
There is no built in variables, MrPlastic shared the link to the iRule wiki.
Every string within brackets are commands which are evaluated to return a value and not variables.
for example, if you use multiple times
the command is evaluated each time. It is recommended to store it in a variable instead of call it multiple times.[HTTP::uri] 
mdcarson_58978It is NOT recommended to create variables rather than using something like [HTTP::uri]. [HTTP::uri] is cached and doesn't incur extra overhead when you use it. Only create variables for operations that incur extra overhead and are going to be used more than once.
