setlsnappsprofile_filtering

Use this method to set type of filter to apply to packets originating from external hosts.

Consider an example of an LSN mapping that includes the mapping of subscriber IP:port (X:x), NAT IP:port (N:n), and external host IP:port (Y:y).

Available options function as follows:
* ENDPOINT INDEPENDENT - Filters out only packets not destined to the subscriber IP address and port X:x, regardless of the external host IP address and port source (Z:z). The Citrix ADC forwards any packets destined to X:x. In other words, sending packets from the subscriber to any external IP address is sufficient to allow packets from any external hosts to the subscriber.

* ADDRESS DEPENDENT - Filters out packets not destined to subscriber IP address and port X:x. In addition, the ADC filters out packets from Y:y destined for the subscriber (X:x) if the client has not previously sent packets to Y:anyport (external port independent). In other words, receiving packets from a specific external host requires that the subscriber first send packets to that specific external host's IP address.

* ADDRESS PORT DEPENDENT (the default) - Filters out packets not destined to subscriber IP address and port (X:x). In addition, the Citrix ADC filters out packets from Y:y destined for the subscriber (X:x) if the subscriber has not previously sent packets to Y:y. In other words, receiving packets from a specific external host requires that the subscriber first send packets first to that external IP address and port.

Syntax



Parameters

appsprofilename

Name for the LSN application profile. Must begin with an ASCII alphanumeric or underscore (_) character, and must contain only ASCII alphanumeric, underscore, hash (#), period (.), space, colon (:), at (@), equals (=), and hyphen (-) characters. Cannot be changed after the LSN application profile 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, "lsn application profile1" or 'lsn application profile1').
This is mandatory parameter.
