how rewrite site's base of operations path (i.e. /) using iis rewrite?

i've tried far:

<rule name="rewriteindexurl" stopprocessing="true"> <match url="/" /> <conditions> <add input="{request_filename}" matchtype="isfile" negate="true" /> <add input="{request_filename}" matchtype="isdirectory" negate="true" /> </conditions> <action type="rewrite" url="index.html" /> </rule>

currently it's not rewriting base of operations path, , it's returning index.html directly.

i figure out possible solution , worked:

remove default documents in iis site (i.e. index.html, index.htm, default.aspx...)

add next rewriting rule:

<rule name="rewriteindexurl" stopprocessing="true"> <match url="^" /> <conditions> <add input="{request_filename}" matchtype="isfile" negate="true" /> <add input="{request_filename}" matchtype="isdirectory" negate="false" /> </conditions> <action type="rewrite" url="index.html" /> </rule>
