Configuration for MX record resource.

Properties

(click to see Operations )

Name	Permissions	Description
domain	Read-write	Domain name for which to add the MX record. Minimum length = 1
mx	Read-write	Host name of the mail exchange server. Minimum length = 1
pref	Read-write	Priority number to assign to the mail exchange server. A domain name can have multiple mail servers, with a priority number assigned to each server. The lower the priority number, the higher the mail server’s priority. When other mail servers have to deliver mail to the specified domain, they begin with the mail server with the lowest priority number, and use other configured mail servers, in priority order, as backups. Minimum value = 0 Maximum value = 65535
ttl	Read-write	Time to Live (TTL), in seconds, for the record. TTL is the time for which the record must be cached by DNS proxies. The specified TTL is applied to all the resource records that are of the same record type and belong to the specified domain name. For example, if you add an address record, with a TTL of 36000, to the domain name example.com, the TTLs of all the address records of example.com are changed to 36000. If the TTL is not specified, the Citrix ADC uses either the DNS zone’s minimum TTL or, if the SOA record is not available on the appliance, the default value of 3600. Default value: 3600 Minimum value = 0 Maximum value = 2147483647
ecssubnet	Read-write	Subnet for which the cached MX record need to be removed.
type	Read-write	Type of records to display. Available settings function as follows ADNS - Display all authoritative address records. PROXY - Display all proxy address records. ALL - Display all address records. Default value: ADNS Possible values = ALL, ADNS, PROXY
nodeid	Read-write	Unique number that identifies the cluster node. Minimum value = 0 Maximum value = 31
authtype	Read-only	Record type. Possible values = ALL, ADNS, PROXY
__count	Read-only	count parameter

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
