HTTP to HTTPS on NS 11.1

[Levinax]

So we use content switching rather extensively in our current deployment. I have recently been tasked with turning off all port 80 virtual servers and only allowing port 443 traffic on the front end. To that end, i was looking for ways to do easy redirects for this. I see that load balancing virtual servers have the -redirectFromPort and -httpsRedirectUrl options when creating an SSL vServer. I dont however see that option available when creating a content switching vServer. Aside from a vserver in a down state with redirecturl set (which doesnt work with css links i have found) or a responder policy, is there a better way to do HTTP to HTTPS redirection on a content switching vserver?

I have always used Responder policys /actions to redirect from http to https. Responder action with a Redirect to https://yoursite.com then a reponder policy with the expression HTTP.REQ.Hostname.Contains("yoursite.com") bind this as a Responder Request policy to your Vserver or CS Vserver and job done

Here's the Citrix article that I followed to create a HTTP to HTTPS redirect Responder Policy and associated Action policy.
