Name	Data Type	Permissions	Description
name	<String>	Read-write	Name of the load balancing virtual server group. Minimum length = 1
persistencetype	<String>	Read-write	Type of persistence for the group. Available settings function as follows: * SOURCEIP - Create persistence sessions based on the client IP. * COOKIEINSERT - Create persistence sessions based on a cookie in client requests. The cookie is inserted by a Set-Cookie directive from the server, in its first response to a client. * RULE - Create persistence sessions based on a user defined rule. * NONE - Disable persistence for the group. Possible values = SOURCEIP, COOKIEINSERT, RULE, NONE
persistencebackup	<String>	Read-write	Type of backup persistence for the group. Possible values = SOURCEIP, NONE
backuppersistencetimeout	<Double>	Read-write	Time period, in minutes, for which backup persistence is in effect. Default value: 2 Minimum value = 2 Maximum value = 1440
persistmask	<String>	Read-write	Persistence mask to apply to source IPv4 addresses when creating source IP based persistence sessions. Minimum length = 1
cookiename	<String>	Read-write	Use this parameter to specify the cookie name for COOKIE peristence type. It specifies the name of cookie with a maximum of 32 characters. If not specified, cookie name is internally generated.
v6persistmasklen	<Double>	Read-write	Persistence mask to apply to source IPv6 addresses when creating source IP based persistence sessions. Default value: 128 Minimum value = 1 Maximum value = 128
cookiedomain	<String>	Read-write	Domain attribute for the HTTP cookie. Minimum length = 1
timeout	<Double>	Read-write	Time period for which a persistence session is in effect. Default value: 2 Minimum value = 0 Maximum value = 1440
rule	<String>	Read-write	Expression, or name of a named expression, against which traffic is evaluated. The following requirements apply only to the Citrix ADC CLI: * If the expression includes one or more spaces, enclose the entire expression in double quotation marks. * If the expression itself includes double quotation marks, escape the quotations by using the \ character. * Alternatively, you can use single quotation marks to enclose the rule, in which case you do not have to escape the double quotation marks. Default value: "None"
usevserverpersistency	<String>	Read-write	Use this parameter to enable vserver level persistence on group members. This allows member vservers to have their own persistence, but need to be compatible with other members persistence rules. When this setting is enabled persistence sessions created by any of the members can be shared by other member vservers. Default value: DISABLED Possible values = ENABLED, DISABLED
mastervserver	<String>	Read-write	When USE_VSERVER_PERSISTENCE is enabled, one can use this setting to designate a member vserver as master which is responsible to create the persistence sessions.
newname	<String>	Read-write	New name for the load balancing virtual server group. Minimum length = 1
td	<Double>	Read-only	Integer value that uniquely identifies the traffic domain in which you want to configure the entity. If you do not specify an ID, the entity becomes part of the default traffic domain, which has an ID of 0. Minimum value = 0 Maximum value = 4094
__count	<Double>	Read-only	count parameter

Some options that you can use for each operations:

Getting warnings in response: NITRO allows you to get warnings in an operation by specifying the 'warning' query parameter as 'yes'. For example, to get warnings while connecting to the NetScaler appliance, the URL is as follows:
http:// <netscaler-ip-address> /nitro/v1/config/login?warning=yes
If any, the warnings are displayed in the response payload with the HTTP code '209 X-NITRO-WARNING'.
Authenticated access for individual NITRO operations: NITRO allows you to logon to the NetScaler appliance to perform individual operations. You can use this option instead of creating a NITRO session (using the login object) and then using that session to perform all operations,
To do this, you must specify the username and password in the request header of the NITRO request as follows:
X-NITRO-USER: <username>
X-NITRO-PASS: <password>
Note: In such cases, make sure that the request header DOES not include the following:
Cookie:NITRO_AUTH_TOKEN= <tokenvalue>

Note:

Mandatory parameters are marked in red and placeholder content is marked in green
