rename responder action

Renames a responder action.

Synopsis

rename responder action @ @

Arguments

name Existing name of the responder action.

The following requirement applies only to the Citrix ADC CLI: If the name includes one or more spaces, enclose the name in double or single quotation marks (for example, "my responder action" or my responder action').

set responder action

Modifies the specified parameters of a responder action.

Synopsis

set responder action [-target ] [-htmlpage ] [-responseStatusCode ] [-reasonPhrase ] [-comment ] [-headers ...]

Arguments

name Name of the responder action to be modified.

target Expression specifying what to respond with. Typically a URL for redirect policies or a default-syntax expression. In addition to Citrix ADC default-syntax expressions that refer to information in the request, a stringbuilder expression can contain text and HTML, and simple escape codes that define new lines and paragraphs. Enclose each stringbuilder expression element (either a Citrix ADC default-syntax expression or a string) in double quotation marks. Use the plus (+) character to join the elements.

Examples: 1) Respondwith expression that sends an HTTP 1.1 200 OK response: "HTTP/1.1 200 OK\r\n\r\n"

2) Redirect expression that redirects user to the specified web host and appends the request URL to the redirect. "http://backupsite2.com" + HTTP.REQ.URL

3) Respondwith expression that sends an HTTP 1.1 404 Not Found response with the request URL included in the response: "HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found\r\n\r\n"+ "HTTP.REQ.URL.HTTP_URL_SAFE" + "does not exist on the web server."

The following requirement applies only to the Citrix ADC CLI: Enclose the entire expression in single quotation marks. (Citrix ADC expression elements should be included inside the single quotation marks for the entire expression, but do not need to be enclosed in double quotation marks.)

htmlpage For respondwithhtmlpage policies, name of the HTML page object to use as the response. You must first import the page object.

reasonPhrase Expression specifying the reason phrase of the HTTP response. The reason phrase may be a string literal with quotes or a PI expression. For example: "Invalid URL: " + HTTP.REQ.URL

comment Comment. Any type of information about this responder action.

headers One or more headers to insert into the HTTP response. Each header is specified as "name(expr)", where expr is an expression that is evaluated at runtime to provide the value for the named header. You can configure a maximum of eight headers for a responder action.

Example

1. set responder action act_responder -target 'HTTP.REQ.HEADER(MYURL) -redirectresponsecode '/,
