Hi,

Here is the redirect config link:

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/application-networking-services/css-11000-series-content-services-switches/41840-redirects-config.html

there are different ways to configure redirect on the CSS.

Here is a link explaining all of them

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/contnetw/ps789/products_configuration_example09186a00801de8d6.shtml

You need to make use of the command 'domain' in order t o preserve the path.

Hi,

For configuring redirection, you need to configure a service which doesn't exist in your network and you need to add that service as type "redirect" and define the domain/redirect-string to which the clients would be redirected. The above configuration you have pasted is for loadbalancing and not redirection.

************************** SERVICE **************************

service Redirect
     ip address 2.2.2.2
     keepalive type none--->Keep it none to make the service active.
     type redirect
     no prepend-http--->This needs to be added if redirection is from http to https.
     redirect-string https://abc.com
     active

*************************** OWNER ***************************
    owner Redirect-test
     content Redirect-Rule
      port 80
      protocol TCP
      vip address 206.25.90.84
      add service Redirect
      URL "/*"
      active

The VIP address must be equivalent to the IP address that the user will come on. In your case it would be http://abc.com.

Hi Kanwal,

Thanks for your suggestion.

Let me try this and see...

Moreover would like to ask you that; should i create new service for redirect and give the ip address same as its given to service 192.168.202.148-cu-81 and then add this service to the content.......... content Babu-80.

Kanwaljeet Singh · ‎09-05-2014

Hi,

No. You need to create a service for redirect and use an IP which doesn't exist. The CSS itself redirects the request. Use keepalive none so that service stays up.

Hi Kanwal,

I have tried as per your suggestion; unfortunately dint work.

as i have created a new service called Redirect and then assign that service under the existing Content. as follow.

service Redirect
     ip address 2.2.2.2
     keepalive type none
     type redirect
     no prepend-http
     redirect-string https://abc.com
     active

content Babu-80
    advanced-balance sticky-srcip
    add service 192.168.202.148-cu-81
    add service 192.168.202.149-cu-81

    add service Redirect
    vip address 192.168.202.202
    port 80
    protocol tcp
    url "/*"
    no persistent
    balance leastconn
    active

Could you please tell me, whether am missing something

Thanks

Gajendra

Hi Gajendra,

You need to create another content rule under the owner. Adding under the same content rule is not correct. Something like the below example.

!************************** SERVICE **************************
service Redirect
ip address 2.2.2.2
keepalive type none
type redirect
no prepend-http
Redirect-string https://www.cisco.com
active

service regular-server1
ip address 10.2.3.4
active

service regular-server2
ip address 10.2.3.5
active

!*************************** OWNER ***************************

owner CSS-Team

content Redirect
    vip address 206.25.90.84
    protocol tcp
    port 80
    url "/*"
    add service Redirect
    active

content ssl-rule
    vip address 206.25.90.84
    protocol tcp
    port 443
    add service regular-server1
    add service regular-server2
    active

Let me know if you have any questions.

Kanwal
