Asp.net URL Rewriting

Question

I would like to use the ASP.Net URL Rewriting to achieve the following:

My application is physically hosted in the IIS at the following end point: http://www.example.com/someIISApplication/Default.aspx

I want the user to make a request with the following URL and hit the above end point with a querystring parameter like this:

Requested from browser: http://www.example.com/ABC/someIISApplication/Default.aspx

This is how it actually hits the ASP.Net after route processing: http://www.example.com/someIISApplication/Default.aspx?MyParam=ABC

Answer 1

You can use URL Rewrite Module for IIS .

Create redirect rule on the site level (www.example.com)

Pattern: ^([_0-9a-z-]+)/someIISApplication/Default.aspx

Redirect URL: someIISApplication/Default.aspx?MyParam={R:1}
