Arguments

name Name of the Citrix Gateway virtual server for which to show detailed information.

Output

IPAddress The Virtual IP address of the VPN virtual server.

IPAddress The IP address of the virtual server.

value Indicates whether or not the certificate is bound or if SSL offload is disabled.

port The virtual TCP port of the VPN virtual server.

range The range of VPN virtual server IP addresses. The new range of VPN virtual servers will have IP addresses consecutively numbered, starting with the primary address specified with the argument.

ipset The list of IPv4/IPv6 addresses bound to ipset would form a part of listening service on the current vpn vserver

serviceType The VPN virtual server’s protocol type. Currently, the only possible value is SSL.

type The type of virtual server; for example, CONTENT based or ADDRESS based.

state The current state of the virtual server, as UP, DOWN, BUSY, and so on.

status Whether or not this virtual server responds to ARPs and whether or not round-robin selection is temporarily in effect.

cacheType Virtual server cache type. The options are: TRANSPARENT, REVERSE, and FORWARD.

redirect The cache redirect policy. The valid redirect policies are: l. CACHE - Directs all requests to the cache.

  1. POLICY - Applies cache redirection policy to determine whether the request should be directed to the cache or origin. This is the default setting.
  2. ORIGIN - Directs all requests to the origin server.

precedence This argument is used only when configuring content switching on the specified virtual server. This is applicable only if both the URL and RULE-based policies have been configured on the same virtual server. It specifies the type of policy (URL or RULE) that takes precedence on the content switching virtual server. The default setting is RULE. l URL - In this case, the incoming request is matched against the URL-based policies before the rule-based policies. l RULE - In this case, the incoming request is matched against the rule-based policies before the URL-based policies. For all URL-based policies, the precedence hierarchy is:

  1. Domain and exact URL
  2. Domain, prefix, and suffix
  3. Domain and suffix
  4. Domain and prefix
  5. Domain only
  6. Exact URL
  7. Prefix and suffix
  8. Suffix only

Make sure that the domain you specify in the URL does not match the domain specified in the -d domainName argument of the ###add cs policy### command. If the same domain is specified in both arguments, the request will be continuously redirected to the same unavailable virtual server in the system. If so, the user may not get the requested content.

authentication Indicates whether or not authentication is being applied to incoming users to the VPN.

doubleHop Indicates whether double-hop functionality is enabled or not.

icaOnly Indicates whether an ICA only license feature is enabled or not.

curAAAUsers The number of current users logged on to this virtual server.

curTotalUsers The total number of current users connected through this virtual server.

domain The domain name of the server for which a service needs to be added. If the IP address has been specified, the domain name does not need to be specified.

rule The name of the rule, or expression, if any, that policy for the VPN server is to use. Rules are combinations of expressions. Expressions are simple conditions, such as a test for equality, applied to operands, such as a URL string or an IP address. Expression syntax is described in the Installation and Configuration Guide. The default rule is true.

policyName The name of the policy, if any, bound to the VPN virtual server.

policy The name of the policy, if any, bound to the VPN virtual server.

serviceName The name of the service, if any, to which the virtual server policy is bound.

weight Weight for this service, if any. This weight is used when the system performs load balancing, giving greater priority to a specific service. It is useful when the services bound to a virtual server are of different capacity.

cacheVserver The name of the default target cache virtual server, if any, to which requests are redirected.

backupVServer The name of the backup VPN virtual server for this VPN virtual server.

priority Integer specifying the policy’s priority. The lower the number, the higher the priority. Policies are evaluated in the order of their priority numbers. Maximum value for default syntax policies is 2147483647 and for classic policies is 64000.

cltTimeout The idle time, if any, in seconds after which the client connection is terminated.

soMethod VPN client applications are allocated from a block of intranet IP addresses. That block may be exhausted after a certain number of connections. This switch specifies the method used to determine whether or not a new connection will spill over, or exhaust, the allocated block of intranet IP addresses for that application. Possible values are CONNECTION or DYNAMICCONNECTION. CONNECTION means that a static integer value is the hard limit for the spillover threshold. The spillover threshold is described below. DYNAMICCONNECTION means that the spillover threshold is set according to the maximum number of connections defined for the VPN virtual server.

soThreshold VPN client applications are allocated from a block of intranet IP addresses. That block may be exhausted after a certain number of connections. The value of this option is the number of client connections after which the mapped IP address is used as the client source IP address instead of an address from the allocated block of intranet IP addresses.

soPersistence Whether or not cookie-based site persistance is enabled for this VPN vserver. Possible values are ‘ConnectionProxy’, HTTPRedirect, or NONE

soPersistenceTimeOut The timeout, if any, for cookie-based site persistance of this VPN vserver.

actType intranetApplication The intranet VPN application.

nextHopServer The name of the next hop server bound to the VPN virtual server.

staState State of the STA Server. If Authority ID is set then STA Server is UP else DOWN.

appController Configured App Controller server in XenMobile deployment.

sharefile Configured ShareFile server in XenMobile deployment. Format IP:PORT / FQDN:PORT

useMIP Deprecated. See ‘map’ below.

map Whether or not mapped IP addresses are ON or OFF. Mapped IP addresses are source IP addresses for the virtual servers running on the Citrix ADC. Mapped IP addresses are used by the system to connect to the backend servers.

downStateFlush Close existing connections when the virtual server is marked DOWN, which means the server might have timed out. Disconnecting existing connections frees resources and in certain cases speeds recovery of overloaded load balancing setups. Enable this setting on servers in which the connections can safely be closed when they are marked DOWN. Do not enable DOWN state flush on servers that must complete their transactions.

type Bindpoint to which the policy is bound.

gotoPriorityExpression Next priority expression.

disablePrimaryOnDown Tells whether traffic will continue reaching backup virtual servers even after the primary virtual server comes UP from DOWN state.

Listenpolicy The string is listenpolicy configured for VPN vserver

Listenpriority This parameter is the priority for listen policy of VPN Vserver.

tcpProfileName Name of the TCP profile to assign to this virtual server.

httpProfileName Name of the HTTP profile to assign to this virtual server.

policySubType stateflag flags comment Any comments associated with the virtual server.

appflowLog Log AppFlow records that contain standard NetFlow or IPFIX information, such as time stamps for the beginning and end of a flow, packet count, and byte count. Also log records that contain application-level information, such as HTTP web addresses, HTTP request methods and response status codes, server response time, and latency.

icmpVsrResponse Criterion for responding to PING requests sent to this virtual server. If this parameter is set to ACTIVE, respond only if the virtual server is available. With the PASSIVE setting, respond even if the virtual server is not available.

RHIstate A host route is injected according to the setting on the virtual servers. * If set to PASSIVE on all the virtual servers that share the IP address, the appliance always injects the hostroute. * If set to ACTIVE on all the virtual servers that share the IP address, the appliance injects even if one virtual server is UP. * If set to ACTIVE on some virtual servers and PASSIVE on the others, the appliance injects even if one virtual server set to ACTIVE is UP.

netProfile The name of the network profile.

cginfraHomePageRedirect When client requests ShareFile resources and Citrix Gateway detects that the user is unauthenticated or the user session has expired, disabling this option takes the user to the originally requested ShareFile resource after authentication (instead of taking the user to the default VPN home page)

maxLoginAttempts Maximum number of logon attempts

failedLoginTimeout Number of minutes an account will be locked if user exceeds maximum permissible attempts

secondary Binds the authentication policy as the secondary policy to use in a two-factor configuration. A user must then authenticate not only via a primary authentication method but also via a secondary authentication method. User groups are aggregated across both. The user name must be exactly the same for both authentication methods, but they can require different passwords.

groupExtraction Binds the authentication policy to a tertiary chain which will be used only for group extraction. The user will not authenticate against this server, and this will only be called if primary and/or secondary authentication has succeeded.

bind vpn vserver

Binds attributes to the specified Citrix Gateway virtual server.

Synopsis

bind vpn vserver \[-policy \[-priority <positive\_integer>] \[-secondary] \[-groupExtraction] \[-gotoPriorityExpression ] \[-type ]] \[-intranetApplication ] \[-nextHopServer ] \[-urlName ] \[-intranetIP <ip\_addr> ] \[-intranetIP6 <ip\_addr|ipv6\_addr|\*> ] \[-staServer \[-staAddressType \( IPV4 | IPV6 )]] \[-appController ] \[-sharefile ] \[-portaltheme ] \[-eula ] \[-analyticsProfile ]

Arguments

name Name of the virtual server.

policy Name of a policy to bind to the virtual server (for example, the name of an authentication, session, or endpoint analysis policy).

priority Integer specifying the policy’s priority. The lower the number, the higher the priority. Policies are evaluated in the order of their priority numbers. Maximum value for default syntax policies is 2147483647 and for classic policies is 64000. Minimum value: 0 Maximum value: 2147483647

secondary Binds the authentication policy as the secondary policy to use in a two-factor configuration. A user must then authenticate not only via a primary authentication method but also via a secondary authentication method. User groups are aggregated across both. The user name must be exactly the same for both authentication methods, but they can require different passwords.

groupExtraction Binds the authentication policy to a tertiary chain which will be used only for group extraction. The user will not authenticate against this server, and this will only be called if primary and/or secondary authentication has succeeded.

gotoPriorityExpression Applicable only to advance vpn session policy. Expression or other value specifying the next policy to evaluate if the current policy evaluates to TRUE. Specify one of the following values:

  • NEXT - Evaluate the policy with the next higher priority number.
  • END - End policy evaluation.
  • An expression that evaluates to a number. If you specify an expression, the number to which it evaluates determines the next policy to evaluate, as follows:
  • If the expression evaluates to a higher numbered priority, the policy with that priority is evaluated next.
  • If the expression evaluates to the priority of the current policy, the policy with the next higher numbered priority is evaluated next.
  • If the expression evaluates to a number that is larger than the largest numbered priority, policy evaluation ends. An UNDEF event is triggered if:
  • The expression is invalid.
  • The expression evaluates to a priority number that is numerically lower than the current policy’s priority.
  • The expression evaluates to a priority number that is between the current policy’s priority number (say, 30) and the highest priority number (say, 100), but does not match any configured priority number (for example, the expression evaluates to the number 85). This example assumes that the priority number increments by 10 for every successive policy, and therefore a priority number of 85 does not exist in the policy label.

type Bind point to which to bind the policy. Applies only to rewrite and cache policies. If you do not set this parameter, the policy is bound to REQ_DEFAULT or RES_DEFAULT, depending on whether the policy rule is a response-time or a request-time expression.

Possible values: REQUEST, RESPONSE, ICA_REQUEST, OTHERTCP_REQUEST, AAA_REQUEST, AAA_RESPONSE

Arguments

name Name for the Citrix Gateway virtual server. 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. Can be changed after the virtual server is created.

The following requirement applies only to the Citrix ADC CLI: If the name includes one or more spaces, enclose the name in double or single quotation marks (for example, “my server” or ‘my server’).

serviceType Protocol used by the Citrix Gateway virtual server.

Possible values: SSL, DTLS Default value: SSL

IPAddress IPv4 or IPv6 address of the Citrix Gateway virtual server. Usually a public IP address. User devices send connection requests to this IP address.

range Range of Citrix Gateway virtual server IP addresses. The consecutively numbered range of IP addresses begins with the address specified by the IP Address parameter. In the configuration utility, select Network VServer to enter a range. Default value: 1 Minimum value: 1

port TCP port on which the virtual server listens.

ipset The list of IPv4/IPv6 addresses bound to ipset would form a part of listening service on the current vpn vserver

state State of the virtual server. If the virtual server is disabled, requests are not processed.

Possible values: ENABLED, DISABLED Default value: ENABLED

authentication Require authentication for users connecting to Citrix Gateway.

Possible values: ON, OFF Default value: ON

doubleHop Use the Citrix Gateway appliance in a double-hop configuration. A double-hop deployment provides an extra layer of security for the internal network by using three firewalls to divide the DMZ into two stages. Such a deployment can have one appliance in the DMZ and one appliance in the secure network.

Possible values: ENABLED, DISABLED Default value: DISABLED

maxAAAUsers Maximum number of concurrent user sessions allowed on this virtual server. The actual number of users allowed to log on to this virtual server depends on the total number of user licenses. Minimum value: 0

icaOnly

  • When set to ON, it implies Basic mode where the user can log on using either Citrix Receiver or a browser and get access to the published apps configured at the XenApp/XenDEsktop environment pointed out by the WIHome parameter. Users are not allowed to connect using the Citrix Gateway Plug-in and end point scans cannot be configured. Number of users that can log in and access the apps are not limited by the license in this mode.

  • When set to OFF, it implies Smart Access mode where the user can log on using either Citrix Receiver or a browser or a Citrix Gateway Plug-in. The admin can configure end point scans to be run on the client systems and then use the results to control access to the published apps. In this mode, the client can connect to the gateway in other client modes namely VPN and CVPN. Number of users that can log in and access the resources are limited by the CCU licenses in this mode.

Possible values: ON, OFF Default value: OFF

icaProxySessionMigration This option determines if an existing ICA Proxy session is transferred when the user logs on from another device.

Possible values: ON, OFF Default value: OFF

dtls This option starts/stops the turn service on the vserver

Possible values: ON, OFF Default value: ON

loginOnce This option enables/disables seamless SSO for this Vserver.

Possible values: ON, OFF Default value: OFF

deviceCert Indicates whether device certificate check as a part of EPA is on or off.

Possible values: ON, OFF Default value: OFF

certkeyNames Name of the certificate key that was bound to the corresponding SSL virtual server as the Certificate Authority for the device certificate

downStateFlush Close existing connections when the virtual server is marked DOWN, which means the server might have timed out. Disconnecting existing connections frees resources and in certain cases speeds recovery of overloaded load balancing setups. Enable this setting on servers in which the connections can safely be closed when they are marked DOWN. Do not enable DOWN state flush on servers that must complete their transactions.

Possible values: ENABLED, DISABLED Default value: ENABLED

Listenpolicy String specifying the listen policy for the Citrix Gateway virtual server. Can be either a named expression or an expression. The Citrix Gateway virtual server processes only the traffic for which the expression evaluates to true. Default value: “none”

Listenpriority Integer specifying the priority of the listen policy. A higher number specifies a lower priority. If a request matches the listen policies of more than one virtual server, the virtual server whose listen policy has the highest priority (the lowest priority number) accepts the request. Default value: 101 Minimum value: 0 Maximum value: 100

tcpProfileName Name of the TCP profile to assign to this virtual server.

httpProfileName Name of the HTTP profile to assign to this virtual server. Default value: “nshttp_default_strict_validation”

comment Any comments associated with the virtual server.

appflowLog Log AppFlow records that contain standard NetFlow or IPFIX information, such as time stamps for the beginning and end of a flow, packet count, and byte count. Also log records that contain application-level information, such as HTTP web addresses, HTTP request methods and response status codes, server response time, and latency.

Possible values: ENABLED, DISABLED Default value: ENABLED

icmpVsrResponse Criterion for responding to PING requests sent to this virtual server. If this parameter is set to ACTIVE, respond only if the virtual server is available. With the PASSIVE setting, respond even if the virtual server is not available.

Possible values: PASSIVE, ACTIVE Default value: PASSIVE

RHIstate A host route is injected according to the setting on the virtual servers. * If set to PASSIVE on all the virtual servers that share the IP address, the appliance always injects the hostroute. * If set to ACTIVE on all the virtual servers that share the IP address, the appliance injects even if one virtual server is UP. * If set to ACTIVE on some virtual servers and PASSIVE on the others, the appliance injects even if one virtual server set to ACTIVE is UP.

Possible values: PASSIVE, ACTIVE Default value: PASSIVE

netProfile The name of the network profile.

cginfraHomePageRedirect When client requests ShareFile resources and Citrix Gateway detects that the user is unauthenticated or the user session has expired, disabling this option takes the user to the originally requested ShareFile resource after authentication (instead of taking the user to the default VPN home page)

Possible values: ENABLED, DISABLED Default value: ENABLED

maxLoginAttempts Maximum number of logon attempts Minimum value: 1 Maximum value: 255

failedLoginTimeout Number of minutes an account will be locked if user exceeds maximum permissible attempts Minimum value: 1

l2Conn Use Layer 2 parameters (channel number, MAC address, and VLAN ID) in addition to the 4-tuple (::::) that is used to identify a connection. Allows multiple TCP and non-TCP connections with the same 4-tuple to coexist on the Citrix ADC.

Possible values: ON, OFF

deploymentType rdpServerProfileName Name of the RDP server profile associated with the vserver.

WindowsEPAPluginUpgrade Option to set plugin upgrade behaviour for Win

Possible values: Always, Essential, Never

LinuxEPAPluginUpgrade Option to set plugin upgrade behaviour for Linux

Possible values: Always, Essential, Never

MacEPAPluginUpgrade Option to set plugin upgrade behaviour for Mac

Possible values: Always, Essential, Never

logoutOnSmartcardRemoval Option to VPN plugin behavior when smartcard or its reader is removed

Possible values: ON, OFF Default value: OFF

authnProfile Authentication Profile entity on virtual server. This entity can be used to offload authentication to AAA vserver for multi-factor(nFactor) authentication

vserverFqdn Fully qualified domain name for a VPN virtual server. This is used during StoreFront configuration generation.

pcoipVserverProfileName Name of the PCoIP vserver profile associated with the vserver.

SameSite SameSite attribute value for Cookies generated in VPN context. This attribute value will be appended only for the cookies which are specified in the builtin patset ns_cookies_samesite

Possible values: None, LAX, STRICT

Example

The following example creates a VPN virtual server named myvpnvip which supports SSL protocols and with AAA functionality enabled: vserver myvpnvip SSL 65.219.17.34 443 -aaa ON
