yes, but that's also not working. it simply doesn't redirect. I changed web.xml, failed. I also changed webmerged.xml but failed again.<br />
<br />
Any screenshot to do this in websphere?<br />

I have IBM WAS 7.0.0.33 and deployed my war file and can run the war file without issue if I type;<br />
<br />
<a href="http://localhost:9080/index.jsp" rel="ugc">http://localhost:9080/index.jsp</a><br />
<br />
but I want it accessible when I type <a href="http://localhost:9080/" rel="ugc">http://localhost:9080/</a><br />

Java application servers that support the Java EE platform and features include JOnAS from Object Web, WildFly (formerly JBoss AS) from JBoss, Geronimo from Apache, TomEE from Apache, Resin Java Application Server from Caucho Technology, Blazix from Desiderata Software, Enhydra Server from Enhydra.org, and GlassFish from Oracle. Commercial Java app servers include WebLogic by Oracle, WebSphere from IBM and the open source JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (JBoss EAP) by Red Hat.

Java App Servers

Java is a platform-independent, object-oriented programming language and run-time environment, designed to have as few implementation dependencies as possible such that developers can write one set of code across all platforms using libraries. Most devices will not run Java natively, and require a run-time component to be installed in order to execute a Java program.

Java

JavaServer Pages (JSP) allow the development of dynamically generated web pages. It uses the Java programming language; JSP pages are translated into servlets at runtime, with each servlet being cached and reused until the JSP is modified. JSP allows Java code to be interleaved with static web markup content, so the resulting page can be compiled and executed on the server to deliver the content.
