Exinda | HTTP Redirect error too many redirects

Summary

Page not loading with Exinda is trying to redirect HTTP request

Overview

If HTTP Redirect is not configured properly, the redirect fails. 
The configured redirect URL page does not load and the following error is displayed: ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS

Cause

The HTTP redirect failure above is due to a redirect loop being caused by Exinda redirecting both

• Requests from Client and
• Responses from Server . 

The configuration that causes this is incorrect filters in the redirect policy where the source and destination are set to ALL.
 

Resolution

For the HTTP redirect policy to work correctly, the policy filters have to be more specific. 
If you are specific and add a particular network object to the source, this ensures that traffic from that

• Source is redirected to the specified server, and
• The responses from the server are not redirected, causing a loop. 

The correct way to configure the redirect policy  is illustrated below, with a specific source being used in the filter.
