7.5.6 Additional DNS Name Without a Scheme Is Not Rewritten
Rewriter rewrites URLS based on the port configured for Connect Port, when domain name without
scheme is added to the additional URL list. For example, if the Connect port is configured as 80,
Web server rewrites only HTTP URLs and not HTTPs URLs. To work around this problem,
1 In the Administration Console, click Devices > Access Gateways > Edit > [Name of Reverse
Proxy] > [Name of Proxy Service] > HTML Rewriting
2 Add the additional DNS name with the scheme in the Additional DNS Names List in the
following format:
scheme://DNS_name
For example, https://example.com

Set the log level to LOG_DEBUG to view rewriter log messages in the
