Configuration for compression policy resource.

Properties¶

(click to see Operations)

Name	Data Type	Permissions	Description
name	<String>	Read-write	Name of the HTTP compression policy. Must begin with an ASCII alphabetic or underscore (_) character, and must contain only ASCII alphanumeric, underscore, hash (#), period (.), space, colon (:), at (@), equals (=), and hyphen (-) characters.<br>Can be changed after the policy is created. <br><br>The following requirement applies only to the NetScaler CLI:<br>If the name includes one or more spaces, enclose the name in double or single quotation marks (for example, "my cmp policy" or my cmp policy).<br>Minimum length = 1
rule	<String>	Read-write	Expression that determines which HTTP requests or responses match the compression policy. Can be a classic expression or a default-syntax expression. <br>Note:<br>Maximum length of a string literal in the expression is 255 characters. A longer string can be split into smaller strings of up to 255 characters each, and the smaller strings concatenated with the + operator. For example, you can create a 500-character string as follows: ";lt;string of 255 characters;gt;" + ";lt;string of 245 characters;gt;"<br><br>The following requirements apply only to the NetScaler CLI:<br>* If the expression includes one or more spaces, enclose the entire expression in double quotation marks.<br>* If the expression itself includes double quotation marks, escape the quotations by using the \\ character. <br>* Alternatively, you can use single quotation marks to enclose the rule, in which case you do not have to escape the double quotation marks.
resaction	<String>	Read-write	The built-in or user-defined compression action to apply to the response when the policy matches a request or response.<br>Minimum length = 1
newname	<String>	Read-write	New name for the compression policy. Must begin with an ASCII alphabetic or underscore (_) character, and must contain only ASCII alphanumeric, underscore, hash (#), period (.), space, colon (:), at (@), equals (=), and hyphen (-) characters.<br>Choose a name that reflects the function that the policy performs. <br><br>The following requirement applies only to the NetScaler CLI:<br>If the name includes one or more spaces, enclose the name in double or single quotation marks (for example, "my cmp policy" or my cmp policy).<br>Minimum length = 1
expressiontype	<String>	Read-only	Type of policy (Classic/Advanced) .<br>Possible values = Classic Policy, Advanced Policy
reqaction	<String>	Read-only	The compression action to be performed on requests.
hits	<Double>	Read-only	Number of hits.
txbytes	<Double>	Read-only	Number of bytes transferred.
rxbytes	<Double>	Read-only	Number of bytes received.
clientttlb	<Double>	Read-only	Total client TTLB value.
clienttransactions	<Double>	Read-only	Number of client transactions.
serverttlb	<Double>	Read-only	Total server TTLB value.
servertransactions	<Double>	Read-only	Number of server transactions.
description	<String>	Read-only	Description of the policy.
builtin	<String[]>	Read-only	Flag to determine if compression policy is builtin or not.<br>Possible values = MODIFIABLE, DELETABLE, IMMUTABLE, PARTITION_ALL
isdefault	<Boolean>	Read-only	A value of true is returned if it is a default policy.
__count	<Double>	Read-only	count parameter

Operations¶

(click to see Properties)

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>.
