+redir <prefix>
+ The "redir" parameter enables the redirection mode for all GET and HEAD
+ requests addressing this server. This means that instead of having HAProxy
+ forward the request to the server, it will send an "HTTP 302" response with
+ the "Location" header composed of this prefix immediately followed by the
+ requested URI beginning at the leading '/' of the path component. That means
+ that no trailing slash should be used after <prefix>. All invalid requests
+ will be rejected, and all non-GET or HEAD requests will be normally served by
+ the server. Note that since the response is completely forged, no header
+ mangling nor cookie insertion is possible in the respose. However, cookies in
+ requests are still analysed, making this solution completely usable to direct
+ users to a remote location in case of local disaster. Main use consists in
+ increasing bandwidth for static servers by having the clients directly
+ connect to them. Note: never use a relative location here, it would cause a
+ loop between the client and HAProxy!

+ Example : server srv1 192.168.1.1:80 redir http://image1.mydomain.com check

rise <count>
