Synopsis

  • Binding Resource definition for describing association between lsnpool and lsnip resources

Parameters

Parameter

Comments

api_path

string

Base NITRO API path.

Define only in case of an ADM service proxy call

Default: "nitro/v1/config"

lsnip

string

IPv4 address or a range of IPv4 addresses to be used as NAT IP address(es) for LSN.

After the pool is created, these IPv4 addresses are added to the Citrix ADC as Citrix ADC owned IP address of type LSN. A maximum of 4096 IP addresses can be bound to an LSN pool. An LSN IP address associated with an LSN pool cannot be shared with other LSN pools. IP addresses specified for this parameter must not already exist on the Citrix ADC as any Citrix ADC owned IP addresses. In the command line interface, separate the range with a hyphen. For example: 10.102.29.30-10.102.29.189. You can later remove some or all the LSN IP addresses from the pool, and add IP addresses to the LSN pool.

By default , arp is enabled on LSN IP address but, you can disable it using command - “set ns ip”

managed_netscaler_instance_id

string

added in netscaler.adc 2.6.0

The ID of the managed NetScaler instance to which NetScaler Console

has to configure as a proxy server.

Define only in case of an ADM service proxy call

managed_netscaler_instance_ip

string

added in netscaler.adc 2.6.0

The IP of the managed NetScaler instance to which NetScaler Console

has to configure as a proxy server.

Define only in case of an ADM service proxy call

managed_netscaler_instance_name

string

added in netscaler.adc 2.6.0

The name of the managed NetScaler instance to which NetScaler Console

has to configure as a proxy server.

Define only in case of an ADM service proxy call

managed_netscaler_instance_password

string

added in netscaler.adc 2.6.0

The password of the managed NetScaler instance.

Define only in case of an ADM service proxy call

In Settings > Administration > System Configurations > Basic Settings,

if you select Prompt Credentials for Instance Login,

ensure to configure username and password of a managed instance.

managed_netscaler_instance_username

string

added in netscaler.adc 2.6.0

The username of the managed NetScaler instance.

Define only in case of an ADM service proxy call

In Settings > Administration > System Configurations > Basic Settings,

if you select Prompt Credentials for Instance Login,

ensure to configure username and password of a managed instance.

netscaler_console_as_proxy_server

boolean

added in netscaler.adc 2.6.0

The IP address of the NetScaler ADC appliance acting as a proxy server.

Define only in case of an ADM service proxy call

Choices:

  • false ← (default)

  • true

nitro_auth_token

string

The authentication token provided by a login operation.

nitro_pass

string

The password with which to authenticate to the NetScaler ADC node.

nitro_protocol

string

Which protocol to use when accessing the nitro API objects.

Choices:

  • "http"

  • "https" ← (default)

nitro_user

string

The username with which to authenticate to the NetScaler ADC node.

nsip

string / required

The ip address of the NetScaler ADC appliance where the nitro API calls will be made.

The port can be specified with the colon (:). E.g. 192.168.1.1:555.

ownernode

float

ID(s) of cluster node(s) on which command is to be executed

poolname

string

Name for the LSN pool. 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 pool 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 pool1” or ‘lsn pool1’).

save_config

boolean

If true the module will save the configuration on the NetScaler ADC node if it makes any changes.

The module will not save the configuration on the NetScaler ADC node if it made no changes.

Choices:

  • false ← (default)

  • true

state

string

The state of the resource being configured by the module on the NetScaler ADC node.

When present, the resource will be added/updated configured according to the module’s parameters.

When absent, the resource will be deleted from the NetScaler ADC node.

Choices:

  • "present" ← (default)

  • "absent"

validate_certs

boolean

If false, SSL certificates will not be validated. This should only be used on personally controlled sites using self-signed certificates.
