Redirection information - change destination of packet

[devappforthebest]

Hello,

Currently we are using upg-vpp for our project.
Our objective is to change the destination of package by setting the redirect information to an IP x.x.x.x (given). However, in packet trace it is still forwarded to default gateway

My question is:
Are we expected to change destination of UE packet or UPF will handle it ?

Please find below the upf session info and packet trace for more information.

@devappforthebest is the issue still reproducable for you?

Only Redirect Address Type 2 (URL) is supported and only for HTTP traffic either on port 80 or detected with an ADF rule.

Plain IPv4 or IPv6 redirect targets are not supported, nor is SIP URL.
