Name Data Type Permissions Description
dnsprofilename Read-write Name of the DNS profile.

Minimum length = 1

Maximum length = 127
dnsquerylogging Read-write DNS query logging; if enabled, DNS query information such as DNS query id, DNS query flags , DNS domain name and DNS query type will be logged.

Default value: DISABLED

Possible values = ENABLED, DISABLED
dnsanswerseclogging Read-write DNS answer section; if enabled, answer section in the response will be logged.

Default value: DISABLED

Possible values = ENABLED, DISABLED
dnsextendedlogging Read-write DNS extended logging; if enabled, authority and additional section in the response will be logged.

Default value: DISABLED

Possible values = ENABLED, DISABLED
dnserrorlogging Read-write DNS error logging; if enabled, whenever error is encountered in DNS module reason for the error will be logged.

Default value: DISABLED

Possible values = ENABLED, DISABLED
cacherecords Read-write Cache resource records in the DNS cache. Applies to resource records obtained through proxy configurations only. End resolver and forwarder configurations always cache records in the DNS cache, and you cannot disable this behavior. When you disable record caching, the appliance stops caching server responses. However, cached records are not flushed. The appliance does not serve requests from the cache until record caching is enabled again.

Default value: ENABLED

Possible values = ENABLED, DISABLED
cachenegativeresponses Read-write Cache negative responses in the DNS cache. When disabled, the appliance stops caching negative responses except referral records. This applies to all configurations - proxy, end resolver, and forwarder. However, cached responses are not flushed. The appliance does not serve negative responses from the cache until this parameter is enabled again.

Default value: ENABLED

Possible values = ENABLED, DISABLED
dropmultiqueryrequest Read-write Drop the DNS requests containing multiple queries. When enabled, DNS requests containing multiple queries will be dropped. In case of proxy configuration by default the DNS request containing multiple queries is forwarded to the backend and in case of ADNS and Resolver configuration NOCODE error response will be sent to the client.

Default value: DISABLED

Possible values = ENABLED, DISABLED
cacheecsresponses Read-write Cache DNS responses with EDNS Client Subnet(ECS) option in the DNS cache. When disabled, the appliance stops caching responses with ECS option. This is relevant to proxy configuration. Enabling/disabling support of ECS option when Citrix ADC is authoritative for a GSLB domain is supported using a knob in GSLB vserver. In all other modes, ECS option is ignored.

Default value: DISABLED

Possible values = ENABLED, DISABLED
referencecount Read-only Number of entities using this profile.
__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
