addcsvserver

Use this method to creates a content switching virtual server.

Syntax



Parameters

name

Name for the content switching virtual server. Must begin with an ASCII alphanumeric or underscore (_) character, and must contain only ASCII alphanumeric, underscore, hash (#), period (.), space, colon (:), at sign (@), equal sign (=), and hyphen (-) characters. Cannot be changed after the CS virtual server is created. The following requirement applies only to the Citrix ADC CLI: If the name includes one or more spaces, enclose the name in double or single quotation marks (for example, my server or my server).
This is mandatory parameter.

servicetype

Protocol used by the virtual server.
This is mandatory parameter.

ipaddress

IP address of the content switching virtual server.

targettype

Virtual server target type.
Default value = VAL_NOT_SET.

dnsrecordtype


Default value = NSGSLB_IPV4.

persistenceid


Maximum value = 65535.

ippattern

IP address pattern, in dotted decimal notation, for identifying packets to be accepted by the virtual server. The IP Mask parameter specifies which part of the destination IP address is matched against the pattern. Mutually exclusive with the IP Address parameter. For example, if the IP pattern assigned to the virtual server is 198.51.100.0 and the IP mask is 255.255.240.0 (a forward mask), the first 20 bits in the destination IP addresses are matched with the first 20 bits in the pattern. The virtual server accepts requests with IP addresses that range from 198.51.96.1 to 198.51.111.254. You can also use a pattern such as 0.0.2.2 and a mask such as 0.0.255.255 (a reverse mask). If a destination IP address matches more than one IP pattern, the pattern with the longest match is selected, and the associated virtual server processes the request. For example, if the virtual servers, vs1 and vs2, have the same IP pattern, 0.0.100.128, but different IP masks of 0.0.255.255 and 0.0.224.255, a destination IP address of 198.51.100.128 has the longest match with the IP pattern of vs1. If a destination IP address matches two or more virtual servers to the same extent, the request is processed by the virtual server whose port number matches the port number in the request.

ipmask

IP mask, in dotted decimal notation, for the IP Pattern parameter. Can have leading or trailing non-zero octets (for example, 255.255.240.0 or 0.0.255.255). Accordingly, the mask specifies whether the first n bits or the last n bits of the destination IP address in a client request are to be matched with the corresponding bits in the IP pattern. The former is called a forward mask. The latter is called a reverse mask.

range

Number of consecutive IP addresses, starting with the address specified by the IP Address parameter, to include in a range of addresses assigned to this virtual server.

stateupdate

Enable state updates for a specific content switching virtual server. By default, the Content Switching virtual server is always UP, regardless of the state of the Load Balancing virtual servers bound to it. This parameter interacts with the global setting as follows: Global Level | Vserver Level | Result ENABLED ENABLED ENABLED ENABLED DISABLED ENABLED DISABLED ENABLED ENABLED DISABLED DISABLED DISABLED If you want to enable state updates for only some content switching virtual servers, be sure to disable the state update parameter.

Caution: Make sure that the domain in the URL does not match the domain specified for a content switching policy. If it does, requests are continuously redirected to the unavailable virtual server.

clttimeout

Default value = VAL_NOT_SET.
Maximum value = 31536000.
