ACE 4710: How to Configure http re-write request/response scenario

[pariggins]

We want to mask part of the path prefix to hide development content:

For example: the site(s) are:

https://server01.widgetco.local:50100/acme.com~iem~cssweb/login.xhtml

&

https://server02.widgetco.local:50100/acme.com~iem~cssweb/login.xhtml

However we don't want anything with acme showing...so
we would want the loadbalanced url to be:

https://widgetco.com/login.xhtml  ...for requests and responses. I think this would be an http re-write request/response scenario?

Is this possible to configure this on the ACE Device?

If so please supply example configuration of how this would look. We've got the load balance configuration down...not sure how to do this re-write type scenario?

Hello Patrick-

As it currently stands, ACE can only rewrite anything in the HTTP header - the header begins at the /r/n after the HTTP version number - thus, the URL can not be rewritten.  There has been an enhancement reqeust in place for this - but the challenges with coding the feature have prevented it from being added so far.

Hi.

We are talking about the incoming URL in the header's request, but is there any feature request regarding the ability to rewrite URLs within the HTML body within the repsonses ?
