Comments on: Cisco CSM URL Redirect http://blog.super-networking.net/2006/07/cisco-csm-url-redirect/ Sun, 20 May 2012 14:51:47 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7.1 hourly 1 By: chris.super http://blog.super-networking.net/2006/07/cisco-csm-url-redirect/comment-page-1/#comment-20131 chris.super Thu, 05 Jul 2007 12:57:42 +0000 http://blog.super-networking.net/?p=48#comment-20131 If you want to do the whole site say for a backup if your webservers fail use the following: vserver MYSITE virtual 1.1.1.1 tcp www serverfarm MYSITE-SF backup FAILOVER persistent rebalance inservice serverfarm FAILOVER nat server no nat client redirect-vserver FL-OVER webhost relocation https://www.mysite.com/things/stuff.html inservice If you want all traffic to always redirect make the FAILOVER serverfarm the main one under your vserver instead of the backup. Names I came up with don't matter except to remember that the redirect-vserver name has to be different than the serverfarm it is in. If all traffic is being redirected anyway you might what to setup a redirect on your webserver through IIS instead of in the CSM. Hope this helps, if you have more questions comment. If you want to do the whole site say for a backup if your webservers fail use the following:

vserver MYSITE
virtual 1.1.1.1 tcp www
serverfarm MYSITE-SF backup FAILOVER
persistent rebalance
inservice

serverfarm FAILOVER
nat server
no nat client
redirect-vserver FL-OVER
webhost relocation https://www.mysite.com/things/stuff.html
inservice

If you want all traffic to always redirect make the FAILOVER serverfarm the main one under your vserver instead of the backup. Names I came up with don’t matter except to remember that the redirect-vserver name has to be different than the serverfarm it is in.

I have tried several variations of your example and can not seem to make it work. Since your documentation is more intuative than Cisco's, I figured I would ask you first.
