AppFlow

 

 

To bind an AppFlow policy to a specific virtual server by using the NetScaler command line

At the NetScaler command prompt, type the following command to bind an appflow policy to a specific virtual server and verify the configuration:

bind lb vserver <name> -policyname <policy_name> -priority <priority>

Parameters for binding an AppFlow policy

name

The name of the virtual server to which you are binding the AppFlow policy.

policyname

The name of the AppFlow policy that you want to bind.

priority

A number specifying the priority assigned to this policy. The lower the number, the higher the priority. The priority determines the order in which policies are evaluated, allowing the NetScaler to evaluate the most specific policy first, and more general policies in descending order, finishing with the most general policy.

gotoPriorityExpression

The priority of the next policy that should be evaluated if this policy matches. If set to END, this parameter halts the policy evaluation process after evaluation of the current policy. If you are careful to assign your policy priorities in the right order, you can use this parameter to skip over policies in the event that the current policy matches, and go directly to a specific policy.

type

Bind point, specifying where to bind the policy.

invoke Invoke flag.

labelType

Type of policy label invocation.

labelName

Name of the label to invoke if the current policy rule evaluates to TRUE.

To globally bind an AppFlow policy by using the configuration utility

1.In the navigation pane, expand AppFlow.

2.On the AppFlow page, click Policy Manager.

3.In the AppFlow Policy Manager dialog box, in the Bind Points menu, select Default Global.

4.Click Insert Policy to insert a new row and display a drop-down list of all unbound AppFlow policies.
