Redirect to the site which is not on F5
Hi all, I understood that there are few ways to redirect users to different site..we are using following ways 1. using irule and data group with VIP/port any - irule accepts the http request and execute data groups which has list of sites configured where to redirect site. Irule details: if it get user http request, it disable ssl profile and execute data group and if it get user https request, it process normally
2 defined two different VIPS - 80 and 443 - http VIP redirect to https VIP and https VIP has irule on it which redirect the site
in first method, both http and https request redirect to site in second method, before it get redirect, it converts http to https first
question is, is there any security concern in first method since http request get redirect or no worries since it get redirect to final site so does't matter if it has http or https ?
Thanks
