URL - HOST - Redirect.

Hey brothers, my first question here. Appologize for any error

I need help.

I have an app/https hosted on a computer that doesnt belong to my domain. i need to publish this app/https for wan and apply my root cert, but this host, doesnt bind for my domain and APP can not be resolved for alias.

This host is isolated.. F5 need to be a Man in the middle for all requests and paths... I need to keep a url that can be accessed by internet and answered by F5 for my clients, but F5 need to change paths after for request the application.

has anyway for solve the example?

URL for clients = https://www.abcd.com.br/* (f5)
f5 need to check/change (transparent/internal) = https://www.wyxz.com.br/* (host)

Ex: URL CLIent = https://abcd.com.br/logon URL F5 - Server = https://wxyz.com.br/logon

URL CLIent = https://abcd.com.br/path1/xpto 
URL F5 - Server = https://wxyz.com.br/path1/xpto

I created a VS that has my cert for clients and server cert for F5. And pool member is accessible.

I think i need a rule for that...

I hope I have been understood. Tks a lot.

    Let's say I got your requirement like this,

    1. Clients are going to access your app with 
      https://www.abcd.com.br/*
    2. The resolution comes finally to a VS.
    3. You want the irule to translate the URL and it's queries to your app server as it can understand only for that specific hostname, 
      https://www.wyxz.com.br/*
    4. Again when the traffic traverses back, it should retranslate to 
      https://www.abcd.com.br/*
      back to the client.

    Confirm if this the requirement.
