Hi @Ibrar Tariq,

You can choose the method based on your needs: IIS URL rewriting and ASP.NET routing.

Which Option Should You Use?

In a Web Forms application, you create routes by using the MapPageRoute(String, String, String) method of the RouteCollection class. The MapPageRoute method creates a Route object and adds it to the RouteCollection object. You specify properties for the Route object in parameters that you pass to the MapPageRoute method.

RouteConfig

 public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
 {
     routes.MapPageRoute("products", "products123.aspx", "~/products/product123.aspx");
 }

Best regards,
Lan Huang

There are a couple approaches. The first is to create rewrite rules in iis. You can also create dummy pages that redirect.
