True
The problem is on the fail over environment, we don't have a load balancer and
they would want a solution on Apache so they can implement the same even in the
fail over env
I will anyway send the log, may be you have more ideas
Thanks

Yeah that's what I was suspecting. Because of the F5 masquerading the apache is
not getting the client IP but the one set by F5.
The simplest solution would be to set the rule you need on the F5 load balancer
than on apache server.

If I remember right, I think when I set the log for debugging
The rule does not seem to work as expected and is checking proxy ip
instead of client ip
Anyway, to be sure I will set up the rule yet again and send you the
log snippet.
Thanks

I wonder why the %{REMOTE_ADDR} approach is failing? Are you getting a
wrong REMOTE_ADDR or your rule is not working? Can you please post your rewrite
rule for that case and appropriate rewrite logs with RewriteLogLevel set as
high as possible for debugging?
You can also try to combine SetEnvIf and mod_rewrite for Remote_Addr
parameter but if the above try is failing this one should be failing too since
practically both are checking the same variable.

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.
wsad...@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
