RESET - Terminates the connection, sending the appropriate termination notice to the users browser. FORWARD - Redirects the request to the designated service. You must specify either a service name or a page, but not both. DROP - Silently deletes the request, without sending a response to the users browser. CORRUPT - Modifies the designated HTTP header to prevent it from performing the function it was intended to perform, then sends the request/response to the server/browser. ERRORCODE. Returns the designated HTTP error code to the users browser (for example, 404, the standard HTTP code for a non-existent Web page).<br>Possible values = reset, add, corrupt, forward, errorcode, drop
servicename<String>Read-writeService to which to forward HTTP requests. Required if the qualifier is FORWARD.<br>Minimum length = 1
value<String>Read-writeString containing the header_name and header_value. If the qualifier is ADD, specify ;lt;header_name;gt;:;lt;header_value;gt;. If the qualifier is CORRUPT, specify only the header_name.<br>Minimum length = 1

ADD | DELETE | UPDATE | UNSET | GET (ALL) | GET | COUNT

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>.
