Configuring a responder policy

After you configure a responder action, you must next configure a responder policy to select the requests to which the Citrix ADC appliance should respond. A responder policy is based on a rule, which consists of one or more expressions. The rule is associated with an action, which is performed if a request matches the rule.

Note:For creating and managing responder policies, the GUI provides assistance that is not available at the Citrix ADC command prompt.

To configure a responder policy by using the Citrix ADC command line:

At the command prompt, type:

  • add responder policy []-appFlowaction

  • show responder policy

Example:

> add responder policy policyThree "CLIENT.IP.SRC.IN_SUBNET(222.222.0.0/16)" RESET Done > show responder policy policyThree Name: policyThree Rule: CLIENT.IP.SRC.IN_SUBNET(222.222.0.0/16) Responder Action: RESET UndefAction: Use Global Hits: 0 Undef Hits: 0 Done 

To modify an existing responder policy by using the Citrix ADC command line:
