Redirecting the site collection

Question

I have a site collection with URL https://MySharepoint.Dev.com/default.aspx.

I just want to know if some one browses to this it should redirect to https://MySharepoint.Dev.com without default.aspx page.

I have almost around 30 sitecollections like this. Is there any setting where we can just include like that?

I would use URL Rewrite module for this with pattern

(?:[^*]+)(?=\/default\.aspx)

In case you wish to get rid of /pages/ as well, use this for pattern

(?:[^*]+)(?=\/pages\/default\.aspx)

and Rewrite URL

{R:0}

It will tackle at least these scenarios

Details on configuring URL Rewrite module can be found here.

If you test that URL in "Test pattern..." dialog, does it match your Pattern and return correct redirect URL in the {R:0} variable?

Oh, your question didn't have /Pages/ there in the middle. If in browser you type just mysp.com, to what page you end up?
