Hi How do I set up a rule in Apache( If at all that is
possible) to redirect traffic based on the IP address of the client. Here is the set up of the env There is a reverse proxy (F5 LTM) that does SSL offloading
and this is the first point the user hits and this does load balancing across
our Apache Web Servers. So, we have Apache as a proxy server that sits behind the
firewall and this is the second entry point. The problem is I would need to set up a rewrite rule in
Apache that diverts user to a web page depending on the original IP address of
the client. We run Apache v2 and use {X-Forwarded-For}i feature that
enables us to record the IP address of the client in the access log. In the access log I get both the F5 proxy IP and also
the original client IP. wsadmin@dolores:/etc/apache2> rpm -qa | grep apache2 apache2-2.0.49-27.38 apache2-worker-2.0.49-27.38 Now the condition and rule As soon as the client hits the F5 and the request is sent to
Apache, I need Apache to make a decision by getting the actual client IP and
routing to the appropriate web page. Say if the user is accessing a URI /* and the request is coming
from within 128.48.0.0/16 or ucop.edu domain I need users to get to https://sseqa.ucop.edu/*
For any other client IP requesting the same URI, Apache
should make a decision to re route the request to a different site https://-------- How do I do that? Any support is appreciated. I tried several ways to establish this but each time it
fails. I don’t have the failure logs for one particular attempt. %{REMOTE_ADDR} %{HTTP:X-FORWARDED-FOR} %{REMOTE_HOST} - When trying for a domain based
redirect Thanks Priya |
