Can someone help me with the string that would match a url with no path specified? For instance; user types "https://outlook.domain.net" into their browser and I want the ACE to redirect that request to https://outlook.domain.net/owa".
2 match http url oulook\.domain\.net\
Solved! Go to Solution.

I set up a similar thing for our SAP portal - if the original request is just a '/' at the end with no path after.
class-map type http loadbalance match-any rootURL
description **If the URL is root then redirect**
2 match http url \x2F
Perhaps this is what you are after?

I want to do something similar.
I want a class-map that will match http://domain.com so I can redirect those requests to a link page, but I want everything going to http://domain.com/any_path to be sent to a serverfarm.
I think the class-map would look something like this,
class-map type http loadbalance
2 match http url domain\.com.*
3 match http url domain\.com\.
Am I even close.

Adam and Shday,
I'll give you a hand on this =)
Adam we can solve your problem only if you're doing SSL offloading on the ACE as the layer 5 information that needs to be checked is being sent encrypted.
In case SSL termination is configured then the configuration would be like this:
rserver redirect OWA
webhost-redirection https://%h/owa 301
inservice
serverfarm redirect OWA
rserver OWA
inservice
class-map type http loadbalance match-any OWA
2 match http header Host header-value "outlook.domain.net"
policy-map type loadbalance first-match OWA
class OWA
serverfarm OWA
class class-default
serverfarm Backend
*******************************************************************************
Shday yours is pretty much the same but you need to decide if class-default needs
to be in place:
rserver redirect Domain
webhost-redirection http://%h/any_path 301
inservice
serverfarm redirect Domain
rserver Domain
inservice
class-map type http loadbalance match-any Any
2 match http url /.*
class-map type http loadbalance match-any Domain
2 match http header Host header-value "domain.com"
policy-map type loadbalance first-match Domain
class Any
serverfarm Backend
class Domain
serverfarm Domain
*******************************************************************************

I tried this class-map and policy. I get to my backend server,
but I can't get anything to hit the redirect. Everything is matching on the first class-map
I am using http://domain.com in my browser and my header class-map looks like this,
class-map match-any vip-of-domain
2 match virtual-address 206.201.79.20 tcp any
class-map type http loadbalance match-any any-url
2 match http url /.* ---------------- doesn't this mean any url
class-map type http loadbalance match-any domain
2 match http header Host header-value domain.com
policy-map type loadbalance first-match domain-lbpl
class any-url
serverfarm backend-serverfarm
class domain
serverfarm domain-redirect
policy-map multi-match domain-mmpl
class vip-of-domain
loadbalance vip inservice
loadbalance policy domain-lbpl
I think its matching based on the /.* and never gets to the header class-map.

This causes an infinite loop. I've run through several configurations that have this same flaw in them. I need a configuration that explicitly specifies that the redirect should only happen when there are no characters in the path. I attempted the url match with both \r and \n, also with no luck.

Adam, Shday,
My bad please try config below:
rserver redirect OWA
webhost-redirection https://%h/owa 301
inservice
serverfarm redirect OWA
rserver OWA
inservice
class-map type http loadbalance match-any Outlook
2 match http header Host header-value "outlook.domain.net"
class-map type http loadbalance match-any OWA
2 match http url /owa.*
policy-map type loadbalance first-match OWA
class OWA
serverfarm Backend
class Outlook
serverfarm OWA
*****************************************************************
rserver redirect Domain
webhost-redirection http://%h/any_path 301
inservice
serverfarm redirect Domain
rserver Domain
inservice
class-map type http loadbalance match-any Any
2 match http url http://domain.com/.*
class-map type http loadbalance match-any Domain
2 match http header Host header-value "domain.com"
policy-map type loadbalance first-match Domain
class Any
serverfarm Backend
class Domain
serverfarm Domain
Regards.

Cameron: TAC gave me "2 match http url /" but I went ahead and threw your match in as well to test. Same results; both work. Odd thing is that when I put in the root URL I get redirected to my OWA page. If I then enter the root URL again into the same window, it takes me to the default IIS page. I'm not too worried about it as I don't see this as a likely user encounter, but if you've got any thoughts on why that would happen.... Thanks for your help.
