Intelligently Redirect User
Why use flightPATH?
flightPATH can be used to modify incoming and outgoing* HTTP/S content and requests. As well as using simple string matches such as “starts with” and “ends with,” powerful Perl compatible regular expressions can also be implemented for more control.
In addition, custom variables can be created and used in the Action enabling many different possibilities.

How do I build a flightPATH rule?
flightPATH rules consist of conditions and actions. Multiple conditions can be added together.
Multiple actions can also be created and are all executed if the conditions are met.
Variables can also be created to set values to be dynamically included on the action response.
