Adding redirect rules

Add a redirect rule to specify a URL that a user agent should request in response to being denied access to the requested resource.

About this task

You can apply redirect rules to one or more applications.

Steps

  1. Click Access, then go to Rules > Rules.

  2. Click Add Rule.

  3. In the Name field, enter a unique name, up to 64 characters long.

    Special characters and spaces are allowed.

  4. In the Type list, select Redirect.

  5. In the Response Status Code field, specify the response status code you want to associate with the redirect.

    The default is 302.

  6. In the URL field, enter the URL you want to redirect requests to.

    You can use either an absolute or a relative URL:

    • If you use an absolute URL, it must include the http/https prefix.

    • If you use a relative URL, it must begin with a slash. You can specify the URL with or without defining the port.

  7. To opt out of automatic URL encoding, deselect the Encode URL checkbox.
