ADC CLI Commands

cmp-parameter

The following operations can be performed on “cmp-parameter”:

set unset show

set cmp parameter

Configures the compression parameters.

Synopsis

set cmp parameter [-cmpLevel ] \[-quantumSize <positive\_integer>] \[-serverCmp \( ON | OFF )] \[-minResSize <positive\_integer>] \[-cmpBypassPct <positive\_integer>] \[-cmpOnPush \( ENABLED | DISABLED )] \[-policyType ADVANCED] \[-addVaryHeader \( ENABLED | DISABLED ) \[-varyHeaderValue ]] \[-externalCache \( YES | NO )]

Arguments

cmpLevel Specify a compression level. Available settings function as follows:

  • Optimal - Corresponds to a gzip GZIP level of 5-7.
  • Best speed - Corresponds to a gzip level of 1.
  • Best compression - Corresponds to a gzip level of 9.

Possible values: optimal, bestspeed, bestcompression Default value: optimal

quantumSize Minimum quantum of data to be filled before compression begins. Default value: 57344 Minimum value: 8 Maximum value: 63488

serverCmp Allow the server to send compressed data to the Citrix ADC. With the default setting, the Citrix ADC appliance handles all compression.

Possible values: ON, OFF Default value: ON

minResSize Smallest response size, in bytes, to be compressed. Minimum value: 0

cmpBypassPct Citrix ADC CPU threshold after which compression is not performed. Range: 0 - 100 Default value: 100 Minimum value: 0 Maximum value: 100

cmpOnPush Citrix ADC does not wait for the quantum to be filled before starting to compress data. Upon receipt of a packet with a PUSH flag, the appliance immediately begins compression of the accumulated packets.

Possible values: ENABLED, DISABLED Default value: DISABLED

policyType Type of the policy. The only possible value is ADVANCED

Possible values: ADVANCED Default value: ADVANCED

addVaryHeader Control insertion of the Vary header in HTTP responses compressed by Citrix ADC. Intermediate caches store different versions of the response for different values of the headers present in the Vary response header.

Possible values: ENABLED, DISABLED Default value: DISABLED

varyHeaderValue The value of the HTTP Vary header for compressed responses. If this argument is not specified, a default value of “Accept-Encoding” will be used.

externalCache Enable insertion of Cache-Control: private response directive to indicate response message is intended for a single user and must not be cached by a shared or proxy cache.

Possible values: YES, NO Default value: NO

Example

set cmp param -cmpLevel bestspeed -quantumSize 20480

unset cmp parameter

Reverts to the default value.Refer to the set cmp parameter command for meanings of the arguments.

Synopsis

unset cmp parameter [-policyType] [-cmpLevel] [-quantumSize] [-serverCmp] [-minResSize] [-cmpBypassPct] [-cmpOnPush] [-addVaryHeader] [-varyHeaderValue] [-externalCache]

Example

unset cmp param -policytype

show cmp parameter

Displays the values of the compression parameters. Example: > show cmp parameter Configured compression parameters: Compression level: optimal Quantum size: 4555 Server-side compression: ON Minimum HTTP response size for compression: 0 CPU load at which to bypass compression: 100% Compression on PUSH: DISABLED Vary header insertion: DISABLED Disable external cache: NO

Synopsis

show cmp parameter

Arguments

Output

cmpLevel Specify a compression level. Available settings function as follows:

  • Optimal - Corresponds to a gzip GZIP level of 5-7.
  • Best speed - Corresponds to a gzip level of 1.
  • Best compression - Corresponds to a gzip level of 9.

quantumSize Minimum quantum of data to be filled before compression begins.

serverCmp Compression enabled/disabled at back-end server.

heurExpiry Heuristic basefile expiry.

heurExpiryThres Threshold compression ratio for heuristic basefile expiry, multiplied by 100. For example, to set the threshold ratio to 1.25, specify 125.

heurExpiryHistWt For heuristic basefile expiry, weightage to be given to historical delta compression ratio, specified as percentage. For example, to give 25% weightage to historical ratio (and therefore 75% weightage to the ratio for current delta compression transaction), specify 25.

minResSize Smallest response size, in bytes, to be compressed.

cmpBypassPct Citrix ADC CPU threshold after which compression is not performed. Range: 0 - 100

cmpOnPush Citrix ADC does not wait for the quantum to be filled before starting to compress data. Upon receipt of a packet with a PUSH flag, the appliance immediately begins compression of the accumulated packets.

policyType Type of the policy. The only possible value is ADVANCED

addVaryHeader Control insertion of the Vary header in HTTP responses compressed by Citrix ADC. Intermediate caches store different versions of the response for different values of the headers present in the Vary response header.

varyHeaderValue The value of the HTTP Vary header for compressed responses. If this argument is not specified, a default value of “Accept-Encoding” will be used.

externalCache Enable insertion of Cache-Control: private response directive to indicate response message is intended for a single user and must not be cached by a shared or proxy cache.

builtin Flag to determine whether compression is default or not

feature The feature to be checked while applying this config
