remap based on useragent

[Scott Harris <sc...@harrisnet.id.au>]

With our migration to ats we have a requirement to do remaps to different
origin servers based on useragent.

Is there a way to do this with ats or existing plugin or will i need to
write my own plugin to do this?

I think the header_rewrite plugin can do this. Been a while since I used it, but something like (try this carefully though)

# This is a configuration example when used as a remap plugin  rule

  cond %{HEADER:User-Agent} /safari/
  set-destination HOST safari.example.com [L]

  cond %{HEADER:User-Agent} /msie/
  set-destination HOST msie.exapmple.com  [L]

  cond %{HEADER:User-Agent} /mozilla/
  set-destination HOST mozilla.example.com [L]



If you want to use it as a global plugin (that applies to all requests regardless of which remap rule triggers), you have to add a condition like

cond %{READ_REQUEST_HDR_HOOK}


Again, this is right out of my bu^h^h head, check out the README. I could not see any docs for the plugin in Sphinx, not sure if we have one or not ? I should probably write one if there isn't one ...
