The following operations can be performed on “ns-extension”:

unset rm update add set show import

unset ns extension

Use this command to remove ns extension settings.Refer to the set ns extension command for meanings of the arguments.

Synopsis

unset ns extension [-trace] [-traceFunctions] [-traceVariables] [-comment]

rm ns extension

Removes the specified extension object.

Synopsis

rm ns extension

Arguments

name Name of the extension object to remove.

Example

rm ns extension my-extension

update ns extension

Update the specified extension object.

Synopsis

update ns extension

Arguments

name Name to assign to the extension object on the Citrix ADC.

Example

update ns extension my-extension

add ns extension

Add the specified extension object.

Synopsis

add ns extension [-comment ]

Arguments

name Name to assign to the extension object on the Citrix ADC.

comment Any comments to preserve information about the extension object.

Example

add ns extension my-extension

set ns extension

Modifies properties of the extension, including the comment and tracing. Note that tracing parameters are not preserved by a save config and so do not survive a reboot.

Synopsis

set ns extension [-trace ] [-traceFunctions ] [-traceVariables ] [-comment ]

Arguments

name Name to assign to the extension object on the Citrix ADC.

trace Enables tracing to the NS log file of extension execution: off - turns off tracing (equivalent to unset ns extension -trace) calls - traces extension function calls with arguments and function returns with the first return value lines - traces the above plus line numbers for executed extension lines all - traces the above plus local variables changed by executed extension lines Note that the DEBUG log level must be enabled to see extension tracing. This can be done by set audit syslogParams -loglevel ALL or -loglevel DEBUG.

Possible values: off, calls, lines, all Default value: off

traceFunctions Comma-separated list of extension functions to trace. By default, all extension functions are traced.

traceVariables Comma-separated list of variables (in traced extension functions) to trace. By default, all variables are traced.

comment Any comments to preserve information about the extension object.

Example

set ns extension -tracing all

show ns extension

Displays the specified extension object.

Synopsis

show ns extension [] \[-detail \( brief | all )]

Arguments

name Name of the extension object.

detail Show detail for extension function.

Possible values: brief, all

extensionFunctionLineNumber Line number of the function in file.

extensionFunctionReturnType Extension function return type.

activeExtensionFunction Extension function is in use or not.

extensionFunctionArgType List of extension function’s arguments types

extensionFunctionAllParams List of parameters (including promotions) that the function can accept.

extensionFunctionAllParamsCount Number of parameters (including promotions) that the function can accept.

extensionFuncDescription Any description to preserve information about the extension function.

extensionFunctionArgCount Number of parameters in the extension function

comment Any comments to preserve information about the extension object.

functionHits Number of time function evaluates successfully.

functionUndefHits Number of times error occured in evaluating extension function.

functionHaltCount Number of time function evaluation is halted.

trace Enables tracing to the NS log file of extension execution: off - turns off tracing (equivalent to unset ns extension -trace) calls - traces extension function calls with arguments and function returns with the first return value lines - traces the above plus line numbers for executed extension lines all - traces the above plus local variables changed by executed extension lines Note that the DEBUG log level must be enabled to see extension tracing. This can be done by set audit syslogParams -loglevel ALL or -loglevel DEBUG.

traceFunctions Comma-separated list of extension functions to trace. By default, all extension functions are traced.
