ACE SSL Rewrite

[a12288]

Hi, Gilles.

I am using ACE to terminate https, the backend server needs send http-302 redirect to http, so I would need ssl redirect to change HTTP://server1.com/xx/yy/zz to HTTPS://server1.com/xx/yy/zz.

But it never works, on the client browser side, seems like ACE only retain the URL path, give me only HTTPS://server1.com/.

I am trying to using the following actlist:

action-list type modify http SSL_ZCS_ACTLIST

ssl url rewrite location "zcs2.*"

what I missed? thanks.

HI Leo ,

Kindly try the following command

action-list type modify http urlrewrite

ssl url rewrite location "zcs2.*"

instead of using

action-list type modify http SSL_ZCS_ACTLIST

ssl url rewrite location "zcs2.*"

Because Servers are accepting traffic on port 80. When the server sends a redirect

it is not always sent back to the client as https://.

ACE will rewrite the

location field when it sees http://server1.com/xx/yy/zz and will change it to

https://server1.com/xx/yy/zz before encrypting it back to the client.
