WEB REDIRECT
The JANUS WEB REDIRECT subcommand identifies the URL to which incoming URL requests that match a specified pattern are redirected.
Syntax
JANUS WEB portname REDIRECT [method] url redir_url
portname, method, and url are explained in the JANUS WEB command.
redir_url is the URL to which requests that match the pattern in url are redirected.
Just as url can contain wildcard characters, redir_url can also contain wildcard characters. The wildcard characters in redir_url are replaced with the characters that matched the corresponding wildcard characters in url at the time of the request.
For example, given the following rule, a request for URL /JUNK/MAIN.HTML is redirected to HTTP://LOCAL.NTBOX.COM/JUNK/MAIN.HTML:
JANUS WEB WEBPORT REDIRECT /JUNK/* HTTP://LOCAL.NTBOX.COM/JUNK/*
The redirection URL can be an absolute URL (that is, http:// and the host name along with a path), or it can be a relative URL (containing only the path). Thus a redirect can redirect to another machine, another port on the same machine, or simply another path on the same port on the same machine. All of these types of redirection can be useful at times.
