ISAPI Redirector filter Description

ISAPI Redirector filter is a compact application that is designed for redirecting requests sent to specific URLs to one or more webpage addresses called 'mirrors'. Another advantage is that you can give a ratio, called 'weight', that specifies how many requests are redirected to each mirror URL. This filter can be applied in order to split the amount of requests to an overloaded site between several mirrors. Also, by specifying different weights, you can redirect more load to the mirrors with better bandwidth. Another possible putting into pracice of this filter is accessing location with complicated URL by typing something simplier, or even suppling several versions of a site, that are switched automatically. The filter examines each incoming URL and processes it if present in the configuration. For every URL that should be redirected there is a list of corresponding mirror URLs, each with a weight. Redirector finds the mirror which is now in turn and uses it. The process of redirection itself is realized by returning HTTP error number 302 - Object Moved and sending the mirror URL in Location header. When recieving that error the browser should automatically try the returned URL.
