Name Data Type Permissions Description
clearstats <String> Read-write Clear the statsistics / counters.

Possible values = basic, full
auditsyslogmsgsent <Double> Read-only Syslog messages sent to the syslog server(s) over UDP.
auditsyslogmsgsentrate <Double> Read-only Rate (/s) counter for auditsyslogmsgsent
auditsyslogmsggen <Double> Read-only Syslog messages about to be sent to the syslog server.
auditsyslogmsggenrate <Double> Read-only Rate (/s) counter for auditsyslogmsggen
auditsyslogmsgsenttcp <Double> Read-only Syslog messages sent to the syslog server(s) over TCP.
auditsyslogmsgsenttcprate <Double> Read-only Rate (/s) counter for auditsyslogmsgsenttcp
auditnsballocfail <Double> Read-only NAT allocation failed.
auditnsballocfailrate <Double> Read-only Rate (/s) counter for auditnsballocfail
auditlog32errsyslogallocnsbfail <Double> Read-only Nsb allocation failed.
auditlog32errsyslogallocnsbfailrate <Double> Read-only Rate (/s) counter for auditlog32errsyslogallocnsbfail
auditmemallocfail <Double> Read-only Failures in allocation of Access Gateway context structure. When an Access Gateway session is established, the Citrix ADC creates an internal context structure , which identifies the user and the IP address from which the user has logged in.
auditmemallocfailrate <Double> Read-only Rate (/s) counter for auditmemallocfail
auditportallocfail <Double> Read-only Number of times the Citrix ADC failed to allocate a port when sending a syslog message to the syslog server(s).
auditportallocfailrate <Double> Read-only Rate (/s) counter for auditportallocfail
auditcontextnotfound <Double> Read-only Failures in finding the context structure for an Access Gateway session during attempts to send session-specific audit messages. During an Access Gateway session, audit messages related to the session are queued up in the auditlog buffer for transmission to the audit log server(s). If the session is killed before the messages are sent, the context structure allocated at session creation is removed. This structure is needed for sending the queued auditlog messages. If it is not found, this counter is incremented.
auditcontextnotfoundrate <Double> Read-only Rate (/s) counter for auditcontextnotfound
nsbchainallocfail <Double> Read-only Nsb Chain allocation failed.
nsbchainallocfailrate <Double> Read-only Rate (/s) counter for nsbchainallocfail
clientconnfail <Double> Read-only Failures in establishment of a connection between the Citrix ADC and the auditserver tool (the Citrix ADC's custom logging tool).
clientconnfailrate <Double> Read-only Rate (/s) counter for clientconnfail
flushcmdcnt <Double> Read-only Auditlog buffer flushes. In a multiprocessor Citrix ADC, both the main processor and the co-processor can generate auditlog messages and fill up the auditlog buffers. But only the primary processor can free up the buffers by sending auditlog messages to the auditlog server(s). The number of auditlog buffers is fixed. If the co-processor detects that all the auditlog buffers are full, it issues a flush command to the main processor.
flushcmdcntrate <Double> Read-only Rate (/s) counter for flushcmdcnt
systcpconnfail <Double> Read-only Failures in establishment of a connection between the Citrix ADC and the syslog server.
systcpconnfailrate <Double> Read-only Rate (/s) counter for systcpconnfail
logunsentlbsys <Double> Read-only Total auditlog messages which are not delivered to load balanced syslog servers
logunsentlbsysrate <Double> Read-only Rate (/s) counter for logunsentlbsys
logsdropped <Double> Read-only Total number of log messages dropped by Citrix ADC after max hold limit is reached
logsdroppedrate <Double> Read-only Rate (/s) counter for logsdropped
logsdroppedtxminnsbs <Double> Read-only Total number of log messages dropped by Citrix ADC when NSBQ length is less than TX min NSBs
logsdroppedtxminnsbsrate <Double> Read-only Rate (/s) counter for logsdroppedtxminnsbs

Operations

(click to see Properties )

  • GET (ALL)

Some options that you can use for each operations:

  • Getting warnings in response: NITRO allows you to get warnings in an operation by specifying the 'warning' query parameter as 'yes'. For example, to get warnings while connecting to the NetScaler appliance, the URL is as follows:

    http:// <netscaler-ip-address> /nitro/v1/config/login?warning=yes

    If any, the warnings are displayed in the response payload with the HTTP code '209 X-NITRO-WARNING'.

  • Authenticated access for individual NITRO operations: NITRO allows you to logon to the NetScaler appliance to perform individual operations. You can use this option instead of creating a NITRO session (using the login object) and then using that session to perform all operations,

    To do this, you must specify the username and password in the request header of the NITRO request as follows:

    X-NITRO-USER: <username>

    X-NITRO-PASS: <password>

    Note: In such cases, make sure that the request header DOES not include the following:

    Cookie:NITRO_AUTH_TOKEN= <tokenvalue>

*Note: * Mandatory parameters are marked in red and placeholder content is marked in green

get (all)

URL: http:// <netscaler-ip-address> /nitro/v1/stat/audit Query-parameters: args http:// <netscaler-ip-address> /nitro/v1/stat/audit? args=detail: <Boolean_value> ,fullvalues: <Boolean_value> ,ntimes: <Double_value> ,logfile: <String_value> ,clearstats: <String_value>

Use this query-parameter to get audit resources based on additional properties.

attrs http:// <netscaler-ip-address> /nitro/v1/stat/audit? attrs=property-name1,property-name2

Use this query parameter to specify the resource details that you want to retrieve.

HTTP Method: GET

Request Headers:

Cookie:NITRO_AUTH_TOKEN= <tokenvalue>

Accept:application/json

Response: HTTP Status Code on Success: 200 OK

HTTP Status Code on Failure: 4xx <string> (for general HTTP errors) or 5xx <string> (for NetScaler-specific errors). The response payload provides details of the error

Response Header:

Content-Type:application/json
