Configuring a policy to redirect HTTP traffic to an HTTP response webpage
Use the following instructions to configure a policy to redirect HTTP traffic to an HTTP response page.
To configure the policy
- From the Action drop-down list, select the Return HTTP Response and select the HTML Response object checkbox. The HTML Response object allows you to "host" a webpage on the Exinda appliance. You create the HTML Response webpage at Configuration > Objects > HTML Response.For more information refer to Creating an HTML response object. HTTP traffic matching this policy is presented with HTTP webpager. This option is useful to notify users when they are no longer allowed to use the network for HTTP, HTTP-ALT, or HTTPS traffic.
- Enter the Filter Rules. Similar to other policy configurations, you can specify VLAN, Source, Direction, Destination, ToS/DSCPDifferentiated Services Code Point, or Application. However, the only allowable applications are HTTP, HTTP-ALT, and HTTPS.
