On this post, we will go through the steps to add a CITRIX Netscaler device to ADCBOSS.
In order to add a Netscaler Load balancer to the platform you need to navigate to Devices → Add Device → CITRIX Netscaler as shown below:
A screen like the one shown below will appear:
On this screen you need to populate the following information:
- Device Name
- IP Address
- Administrator username
- Administrator Password
- Datacenter
If you want to fetch the configuration from the device tick the “Get Configuration” option. As we are adding a Citrix Netscaler device provisioned for LB, tick the “LB/LTM Module” option.
If you get any error when trying to add the device, check the following:
- Username and password for admin user are correct
- Device name and IP address are correct. It is important that the actual Device name configured on the appliance matches the name used here.
- Connectivity from the ADCBOSS appliance on port 443 and 22 to the CITRIX Netscaler device is allowed.
Once the device has been correctly added to ADCBOSS, you can see it navigating to Devices→List devices
The details of the CITRIX Netscaler device will appear on this screen:
It is that easy to add a CITRIX Netscaler device to ADCBOSS. If you need to add other kind of ADC product or load balancer, please check the following guides:
