i-rule redirection issue

Hi,

 

I have created a i-rule to redirect the when http host contains siteA, & uri starts with search, sent it to SiteA _3737pool.

if http host contains siteA, & uri has 'sales' or FinanceBuyCatergory' words, it has to send request to pool Finance_443 .

Else send request to default pool SiteA_443.

 

Kindly check and let me know if i'm doing something wrong in logic. I see the request are not being send to backend pools .

 

Note: Pool SiteA is attached to VIP where as pool Finance is not attached to VIP and acting a independent pool.

 

irule:

 

if { [HTTP::host] eq "SiteA" and ([HTTP::uri] starts_with "/search/") }{

 

  SSL::disable serverside

 

  pool SiteA_3737

 

 }

 

 elseif { [HTTP::host] eq "SiteA" } {

 

  switch -glob [HTTP::uri] {

 

     "*sales*" - 

 

     "*FinanceBuyCategory*" {

 

     pool Finance_443

 

     }

 

  }

 

}

 

 else { pool SiteA_443 

 

 }

 

}

      Thank you,

      LTM Traffic Policy is not enabled in F5 box.

      Can you help on irule?

    Hi T Rajneesh,

    Can you try this iRule?

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
	if { ([string tolower [HTTP::host]] equals "sitea.com") or ([string tolower [HTTP::host]] equals "www.sitea.com") } {
		switch -glob [string tolower [HTTP::uri]] {
			"/search/*" {
				log local0. "[HTTP::host] [HTTP::uri] iRule redirect SiteA_3737"
				SSL::disable serverside
				pool SiteA_3737
			}
			"*sales*" - 
			"*financebuycategory*" {
				log local0. "[HTTP::host] [HTTP::uri] iRule redirect Finance_443"
				pool Finance_443
			}
		}
	}
	
	log local0. "[HTTP::host] [HTTP::uri] iRule no redirect"
	# if you use default pool, no need 'pool SiteA_443'
	# pool SiteA_443
}

    If it doesn't work, can you check the logs?

    HI,

    My first rule is working fine. i.e., search one.

     

    i have issue when uri has 'sales' or 'FinanceBuyCatageroy'.

     

    Regards,

    Rajneesh
