NetScaler NextGen API
NetScaler Next-Gen API is a modern declarative RESTful API built around two complementary configuration models:
-
App-Centric API — The primary model, where you configure NetScaler in terms of applications. All vservers, services, and policies belonging to the same application are grouped and managed as a single logical unit, applied atomically. This abstracts away low-level ADC complexity and makes NetScaler accessible to application developers without deep networking expertise.
-
Config Sets — For advanced configurations not yet exposed through the app-centric model, Config Sets let you define raw Nitro-style entities (lbvserver, servicegroup, server, etc.) declaratively within the same Next-Gen API framework. This bridges the gap between imperative Nitro operations and modern desired-state workflows.
