To Modify the Reverse Proxy Parameters

1. Click on Configurations tab and select the configuration.

2. Click Virtual Servers tab and select the virtual server.

3. Click Content Handling > Reverse Proxy tab.

4. Click URI

   You can edit the following parameters:

   • URI — The reverse proxy URI

   • Server URL — Comma separated URLs of the remote server. If multiple values are given, the server will distribute load among the specified servers.

   • Sticky Cookie — Name of a cookie that when present in a response, will cause subsequent requests to stick to that origin server.

   • Sticky URI Parameter — Name of a URI parameter to inspect for route information. When the URI parameter is present in a request URI and its value contains a colon `:' followed by a route ID, the request will "stick" to the origin server identified by that route ID.

   • Route Header — Name of the HTTP request header used to communicate route IDs to origin servers.

   • Route Cookie — Name of the cookie generated by the server when it encounters a sticky-cookie cookie in a response. The route-cookie cookie stores a route ID that enables the server to direct subsequent requests back to the same origin server.

   Note –

   Using CLI

   1. Invoke create-reverse-proxy command.

   wadm> create-reverse-proxy --user=admin --password-file=admin.pwd --host=serverhost --port=8989 --config=test --vs=test --uri-prefix=// --server=http://rick.india.sun.com:8080

   See CLI Reference, create-reverse-proxy(1).

   2. Modify obj.conf file.

   NameTrans fn="map" from="/" name="reverse-proxy-/" to="http:/" ... <Object name="reverse-proxy-/"> Route fn="set-origin-server" server="http://rick.india.sun.com:8080" </Object> <Object ppath="http:*"> Service fn="proxy-retrieve" method="*" </Object>

   For redirecting to a secure site, follow the same step and provide the https address for --server option.
