Redirect all requests to another url

Question

I have sip application on my iPhone. It uses sip.server.com url to send requests and get responces.

How can I redirect all request (not only http) from my domen to sip.server.com and then all responces from sip.server.com redirect to the application on iPhone.

So I want to write my own domen instead of sip.server.com in the iPhone application.

Is it possible with asp.net?

you need to write a cname record for your domain pointing to sip.server.com and this should do the trick.

will it redirect non http requests? and sip requests too? if so, please provide some code – Paul T. Feb 20 '13 at 12:14
Yes it will. It will simply resolve the IP address of sip.server.com if someone requests your server irrespective of the protocol. – Apurv Gupta Feb 20 '13 at 12:16
can you provide some code or some links to read about cname record? – Paul T. Feb 20 '13 at 12:26
cname records can be only at hosting provider side, is it so? – Paul T. Feb 20 '13 at 12:38
You need to modify them from your domain registrar or hosting provider depending where are your zone files. One more thing you need to make sure that sip.server.com doesn't bind to a particular host name. – Apurv Gupta Feb 20 '13 at 12:50
You can ask their support guys. They should be able to help you. – Apurv Gupta Feb 20 '13 at 17:11
They wouldn't help me, because they are not interested in that – Paul T. Feb 21 '13 at 05:51

You can use rewrite

<rewrite>
    <rules>
        <rule name="Redirects to www.my-domain.com" patternSyntax="ECMAScript" stopProcessing="true">
            <match url=".*" />
            <conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAny">
                <add input="{HTTP_HOST}" pattern="^www.mydomain.com$" negate="true" />
            </conditions>
            <action type="Redirect" url="http://www.my-domain.com/{R:0}" />
        </rule>
    </rules>
</rewrite>

You can use IIS Rewrite Module to redirect all requests from your domain to required url.

[Example] Creating Rewrite Rules for the URL Rewrite Module

For Non HTTP Requests, you can use DNS Simple to do all required redirection

How will you handle non http requests from IIS? – Apurv Gupta Feb 20 '13 at 12:10

@ApurvGupta I agree that there is a need to write a CNAME record to point to required url. To my knowledge all types of redirections can be done using DNSimple https://dnsimple.com/ Do you know any other ways of doing this? – Ahmed Atia Feb 20 '13 at 12:17
@Ahmed I guess DNSimple will do the same i.e. writing a cname for you. You can write a cname record wherever your zone file is. – Apurv Gupta Feb 20 '13 at 12:52
