Asp.Net MVC Default Route

I have a default route defined as

routes.MapRoute(
                "Default",                                              // Route name
                "{controller}/{action}/{id}",                           // URL with parameters
                new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = "" }  // Parameter defaults
            );

However, if the user is logged in when they visit the site (this can happen if they checked the "remember me last time I logged in" button). I want them to use a different default route and go straight to the login page.

Is this possible in global.asax or will I need to put some logic in my home controller to redirect on login?

Your best bet is to put this in your home controller. Authentication and return of the appropriate type.

ASP.NET MVC routing


is about routing urls to methods of actions on controllers , not about routing users to locations on your website as the case may be. (Think of routing as a static thing, whereas the others (authorization, redirection, etc.) only apply to the current session.)

It is possible to do se Routing Constraints to achieve what you want, but I don't think you want.
