To unbind an advanced policy from a Load Balancing or Content Switching virtual server by using the configuration utility

1.In the navigation pane, expand Load Balancing or Content Switching, and then click Virtual Servers.

2.In the details pane, double-click the virtual server from which you want to unbind the policy.

3.On the Policies tab, in the Active column, clear the check box next to the policy that you want to unbind.

4.Click OK.

Creating Policy Labels

In addition to the built-in bind points where you set up policy banks, you can also configure user-defined policy labels and associate policies with them.

Within a policy label, you bind policies and specify the order of evaluation of each policy relative to others in the bank of policies for the policy label. The NetScaler also permits you to define an arbitrary evaluation order as follows:

•You can use “goto” expressions to point to the next entry in the bank to be evaluated after the current one.

•You can use an entry in a policy bank to invoke another bank.

Creating a Policy Label

Each feature determines the type of policy that you can bind to a policy label, the type of load balancing virtual server that you can bind the label to, and the type of content switching virtual server from which the label can be invoked. For example, a TCP policy label can only be bound to a TCP load balancing virtual server. You cannot bind HTTP policies to a policy label of this type. And you can invoke a TCP policy label only from a TCP content switching virtual server.

After configuring a new policy label, you can invoke it from one or more banks for the built-in bind points.
