This is a plug-in for IIS 7 that allows you to manipulate URL’s.
URL Rewrite has a GUI to allow you to enter rules within IIS 7; in the background all this does is edit the web.config file of the site. I will show you how to create a rule both ways.
- Select the website you wish to configure
- In the “Features View” panel, double click URL Rewrite
