ICM Redirection Configuration: icm/HTTP/redirect

former_member37947 — Thu, 15 Dec 2022 22:51:29 GMT

Hi,

I want the ICM to redirect all the HTTP clients but one to the HTTPS PORT using the FOR parameter of the property icm/HTTP/redirect.

This is the host I do not want redirected:

ismmzss4:44302

How can I make such a rule in the ICM Profile?

This is my actual rule:

The problem with this one, is that it redirects every client, I want to avoid redirecting the client ismmzss4:44302.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

do you have any differentiating parameter in the calls made by ismmzss4 and rest of the clients?

if all calls are identical, then it will be difficult to work only with redirect parameter. you may have to think of doing a HTTP modification (icm/HTTP/mod_x) to differentiate between the calls.

Yes,

All the request coming from that host, have the http header:

host = ismmzss4

Hello,

You cannot achieve your requirement using the parameter icm/HTTP/redirect.

You will have to use the modification handler (parameter icm/HTTP/mod), and use IF statements on your modification rule file to test the client IP addresses, performing the redirect only at the desired situations.
