如何在web.config中重写和/或重定向URL

Question

Here is my problem. I need two things:

I need to setup a sub domain (sub.example.com) to load its contents from http://example.com/somepath but the URL needs to remain (sub.example.com) for the user. This would make http://example.com/somepath/someotherpath equivalent to sub.example.com/someotherpath and so on...

And also if the user accesses http://example.com/somepath directly, I either need to redirect him to the sub domain or just rewrite the URL.

I am using an MVC web application hosted on Azure.

I am not good writing rewrite rules. So if someone can help me out, if this is possible and what rewrite rules I need to input into my web.config file to achieve this. Or maybe there is a better way.

Thanks.

Could you try with this ?

<rewrite>
  <rules>
    <rule name="Redirect" stopProcessing="true">
      <match url="(.*)" />
      <action type="Redirect" url="http://sub.example.com/{REQUEST_URI}" redirectType="Found" />
    </rule>
  </rules>
</rewrite>
