Name Data Type Permissions Description
name 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.
Can be changed after the policy 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 cmp policy” or ‘my cmp policy’).
Minimum length = 1
rule Read-write Expression that determines which HTTP requests or responses match the compression policy.

The following requirements apply only to the Citrix ADC CLI:
* If the expression includes one or more spaces, enclose the entire expression in double quotation marks.
* If the expression itself includes double quotation marks, escape the quotations by using the \ character.
* 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 Read-write The built-in or user-defined compression action to apply to the response when the policy matches a request or response.
Minimum length = 1
newname 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.
Choose a name that reflects the function that the policy performs.

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 cmp policy” or ‘my cmp policy’).
Minimum length = 1
expressiontype Read-only Type of policy (Classic/Advanced) .
Possible values = Classic Policy, Advanced Policy
reqaction Read-only The compression action to be performed on requests.
hits Read-only Number of hits.
txbytes Read-only Number of bytes transferred.
rxbytes Read-only Number of bytes received.
clientttlb Read-only Total client TTLB value.
clienttransactions Read-only Number of client transactions.
serverttlb Read-only Total server TTLB value.
servertransactions Read-only Number of server transactions.

ADD DELETE UPDATE RENAME 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 Citrix ADC appliance, the URL is as follows:

    http://<Citrix-ADC-IP-address(NSIP)>/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 Citrix ADC 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 redand placeholder content is marked in <green>.
