fellow traffic

hi everyone!

I need to know how to check the traffic hits on specific VS whether this traffic is local or external through the CLI or configuration utility. 

  • Najm You should be able using the following iRule.

    when CLIENT_ACCEPTED priority 500 {
    
        log local0. "[virtual] - client ip=[IP::client_addr]:[TCP::client_port]"
    
    }

    Alternatively, if you needed to see it right then in the CLI you can look at the connection table and look at the client_addr section to see the true client IP. The following page should provide additional information to assist you.

  • To check traffic hits on a specific Virtual Server (VS) in Citrix ADC through the CLI, use the command: `nsconmsg -K /var/nslog/newnslog -d stats -g service -c showstats | grep "<VS_NAME>"`. Analyze the output for hit count details.
