  [# 621116]

System

• Option to Allocate an Extra Management CPU

  According to your requirement, you can now allocate an extra management CPU from packet engine pool in the NetScaler MPX appliance, and achieve better performance for configuring and monitoring of your appliance. This feature is supported in NetScaler MPX models 25xxx, 22xxx, 14xxx, 115xx, 15xxx, and 26xxx.
  [# 352233, 235321, 559207, 604165, 615657]

AAA-TM

• In rare scenarios, a NetScaler appliance becomes unresponsive when both nodes of a high availability (HA) setup claim to be the primary node.
  [# 683015]

• If some of the components in high availability (HA) synchronization are temporarily disabled, the NetScaler appliance becomes unresponsive during HA or cluster upgrade.
  [# 688752]

Application Firewall

• Form based NetScaler AppFirewall checks can be bypassed by a multipart POST request in which the Content-type header has been tampered with.
  [# 674658]

• A NetScaler AppFirewall appliance running release 10.5 build 66.6, 11.0, or 11.1 fails because of a packet-engine crash while applying an AppFirewall policy to the load balancing virtual server.
  [# 691219]

• A NetScaler Application Firewall appliance running release 10.5 build 66.6, 11.0, or 11.1 fails because of a packet-engine crash while applying an AppFirewall policy to the load balancing virtual server.
  [# 691211, 692817, 691219, 695869]

DNS

• A NetScaler appliance configured for DNSSEC offloading might fail because of a race condition that can occur when the appliance receives a DNS query for a type A record for a domain that also has a CNAME record, and the canonical name identifies a domain that is in the zone offloaded for DNSSEC processing.
  [# 599741]

• In a cluster setup, the default DNS policy is not made available to packet engines. With this fix, the default DNS policy is loaded into the packet engine.
  [# 669829]

Load Balancing

• In a high availability (HA) setup, an unusually large spike in the number of persistent connections might result in underperformance of the Secure Socket Funneling (SSF) channel between the primary node and the secondary node. The underperformance can eventually lead to session buildup on the primary node and cause persistence to fail.
  [# 685179, 684834, 694238]

• If an add lb monitor command specifies an httprequest argument value of more than 77 characters, a subsequent show command shows an incorrect httprequest value for the HTTP requests that the monitor sends to the CLIP address. The NetScaler appliance's ns.conf file also contains the incorrect httprequest value for the monitor. Also, the other nodes (non-CCO) in the cluster are updated with the incorrect httprequest value by the configsync process.
  [# 685856, 687784]

• The maximum string size of Target Vserver Expression is 1500. If the configuration includes an expression greater than 1500, the NetScaler appliance crashes. With this fix, the maximum string size of Target Vserver Expression is limited to 1499.
  [# 684131]

• In a high availability (HA) setup, if domain-based services are configured and the secondary node does not receive any Service State Sync (SSS) update for the services for more than 247 days, a packet engine might crash when this node becomes the primary node.
  [# 673446, 684550, 688305, 695688]

• Resetting a server connection resets the connections to all services configured with the same IP address and port number. As a result, connections to the service group members are also reset. With this fix, deleting a service that has the same IP address and port number as that of other service group members does not affect the service group connections.
  [# 685707]

NetScaler Gateway

• A memory leak gradually diminishes the amount of memory available for SSL VPNs. The NetScaler appliance eventually fails unless it is rebooted before memory utilization reaches too high a percentage.
  [# 660223, 677197, 551669, 544066, 684981]

• When hundreds of users try to log on to NetScaler Gateway at about the same time, the logon page might stop loading, or it might load very slowly, in which case the logon process takes a very long time to complete.
  [# 684774]

• Support for End-point analysis and VPN plugins for Firefox

  End-point analysis and VPN plug-ins get launched from Firefox browser, build 52.0 or later, even though the browser no longer supports NPAPI plug-ins.
  [# 679998, 682798]

• In case the Split tunnel ON, the Automatic detect settings checkbox (under LAN Settings) in the Internet Explorer settings was being modified after connecting to VPN, because of which external traffic wasn't reachable.
  [# 694328]

• Memory leak in SSLVPN pool is encountered when connection to AAAD daemon is closed at the time of authentication.
  [# 670586, 683809, 671944]

• In rare scenarios, NetScaler dumps core while binding Classic session polices to an existing binding entity, when you have multiple VPN policies configured to the NetScaler.
  [# 685463, 670544, 691767]

NetScaler MPX Appliance

• A NetScaler appliance might become unresponsive if one or both of the following events occurs during an interface reset, a change in interface state to UP, or a high availability failover.

  - An internal process fails to fetch the current state of an interface link.

  - A NetScaler packet engine is terminated.
  [# 660297, 570287, 601816, 609401, 616054, 628184, 630630, 638162, 647061, 653868, 663084, 663461, 663716, 664778, 665684, 666824, 668332]

NetScaler SDX Appliance

• Upgrading a NetScaler instance to release 12.0 by using the SDX Management Service GUI fails if any of the following conditions are met:

  - the Management Service version is 11.1-55.x or earlier.

  - the Management Service version is any version of 11.0 or 10.5.

  This is because the NetScaler image file name format has changed in NetScaler release 12.0.

  The new name and the equivalent old name file format of the NetScaler image file are listed below:

  - New file name format: build-12.0-53.13_nc_32.tgz

  - Old file name format: build-12.0-53.13_nc.tgz
  [# 663614, 664303, 689021]

Networking

• Memory allocated for a TCP session might not get free after a failure in reassembling fragments of a size of more than 1500 bytes. This accumulation over a period of time depletes available memory.
  [# 680185, 680186]

• The NetScaler appliance does not process the BGP remote-as configuration for an IPv6 peer after a reboot resulting in the loss of BGP configuration for this peer.
  [# 685123]

• The NetScaler appliance forwards TCP packets to the destination without processing them if they are destined to port 69 and match an RNAT rule.
  [# 670455]

• The NetScaler appliance drops ND6 solicitation packets received on interfaces that are in muted state.
  [# 684119]

• Interfaces in MUTED state might drop the LLDP packets instead of processing them.
  [# 682769]

• In a high availability setup, when a critical interface goes to DOWN state because of TX stall, HA failover might not happen.
  [# 677815, 679068, 680001]

Policies

• The audit framework has no mechanism to filter UndefHit logs generated in ns.log for undefined hits on rewrite or responder policies. To turn off log generation, you must remove HTTP transaction logging for undefined policies.
  [# 690748]

• The NetScaler appliance crashes if you select an X.509 certificate with 2048 or 4096 bit RSA public key for an XML_ENCRYPT() policy function.
  [# 672262]

• If you define a policy variable or a named expression with the same name as that of a built-in policy function, NetScaler appliances display the following system error message, "when you try to use the policy function in a valid policy expression:

  Expression syntax error [p.req.user^.name, Offset 13]."

  Example:

  > add ns variable user -type text(10)

  Done

  > add rewrite action act1 insert_http_header h1 http.req.user.name
  [# 675375, 676388]

SSL

• In a cluster setup, a certificate update fails, with the following error, if the certificate is in DER format.

  Error :: No such resource
  [# 583715]

• SHA-384 and SHA-512 message authentication code (MAC) algorithms are not supported on the NetScaler MPX 5900 and MPX 8900 platforms.

  Note: These platforms support only SHA-256.
  [# 681101, 688331]

• Renegotiation is not supported on the NetScaler MPX 5900 and MPX 8900 platforms.
  [# 681100, 691661]

• In rare cases, a NetScaler appliance might dump core and restart if you add a certificate revocation list (CRL) larger than 256 KB.
  [# 674278, 678890]

• Some non-TCP applications, such as ICMP(ping), fail if users are connected to NetScaler Gateway by using VPN.
  [# 689947]

• The connection with the back-end server is terminated if OCSP validation for the server certificate fails, even though OCSP validation is optional.
  [# 686998]

• A NetScaler appliance might dump core and restart if you have configured policy based SSL renegotiation and a client sends multiple SSL records before renegotiation is initiated.
  [# 673348, 682192, 682160, 684547, 684992, 687515]

• The NetScaler appliance might dump core memory and restart if you bind a secure monitor to a domain based service.
  [# 661808, 662002, 672103, 672532, 674664, 671558, 674758, 675346]

• Loading a certificate-key pair with a file extension other than .pem from a local computer fails, and the following error message appears:

  Unsupported File Format
  [# 689357]

• After you bind a profile to an SSL virtual server, the "show running config" command incorrectly displays the settings that were in effect before the profile was bound to the virtual server. The SSL profile settings override any virtual server settings.
  [# 624090]

• The NetScaler appliance dumps core and restarts if a wildcard SSL virtual server has the -m mac option enabled.
  [# 682775]

System

• If AppFlow feature and client side measurements are enabled, the NetScaler appliance deletes the NSC_ESNS cookie before forwarding the request to the backend server. A rule was rewritten and configured to insert the Pback cookie in the request sent to the backend server. We are corrupting the OutllookSession cookie when we are trying to do both insert and delete in the HTTP request at the same offset. This is causing sign-on problems. This issue is under investigation.
  [# 633371, 682640, 672615, 639767, 387117, 232011]

• If you enable front end optimization (FEO) and configure integrated caching (IC) with cache selectors, the NetScaler appliance might crash.
  [# 677943]

• When a client times out and sends a message longer than one packet, TCP sends a FIN packet to the application handler (for example, SSL). When TCP receives the second packet, it directly sends the packet to the application handler. As a result, the application handler generates a close notify alert for the first packet and an RST alert for the second packet.
  [# 686390]

• When traffic passes through a NetScaler appliance, client session disconnects causing a packet loss if TCP connections of appropriate window size pass through the small window protection module.
  [# 597673]

• Snmpd communicates with nsaggregatord to process the requests it receives. The SNMP Code also maintains a cache of the responses from aggregator in the form of a CacheTable. If the CacheTable is corrupted, a crash might result.
  [# 675631]

• If a NetScaler-inserted cookie is deleted from the end of a cookie header, the appliance does not remove the preceding semicolon. As a result, an extra semicolon is sent at the end of the cookie header when forwarding it to the back-end server.
  [# 687612]

• An attempt to configure a NetScaler appliance that uses Cloudstack can cause the appliance to fail. If the Cloudstack AutoScale feature or an AutoScale policy is configured with the IP address a server, an attempt to configure the appliance through the NetScaler CLI instead of through CloudPlatform or Cloudstack binds the IP-address based server to the AutoScale Policy service group. This causes the appliance to crash.
  [# 681426]

• If the session ID maintained for clients exceeds the threshold of 16 million entries, the configuration engine might crash. That affects the management traffic. As a result, the management connection closes and the manager must log back on to the NetScaler appliance.
  [# 676599, 692553]

• If multiple trap destinations have the same IP address but different SNMP versions, one of which is SNMPv3, modifying an SNMPv3 trap message leads to an appliance failure.
  [# 683622, 683806]

• In a high availability setup, the following command-propagation warning message appears when a backup is created for a large configuration file on the primary node: "Warning: There is no response from secondary. Propagation Timed out” However, creation of the backup file succeeds in both the nodes after some time.
  [# 679376]

AAA-TM

• A certain version of NetScaler firmware might not use domain-wide cookies by default. Due to that, existing rewrite policies that try to obsolete the cookies for a domain, do not delete the cookies from the client browser.

  Workaround: Use authentication profiles at traffic management (TM) virtual servers to set cookies for the domain.
  [# 677826]

• In rare scenarios, response cookie from OWA 2013 server is not greater than 70 bytes when the NetScaler appliance is configured with Forms Based SSO. Hence, length check for cookie value in success-rule configured in Forms SSO action on the NetScaler appliance needs to be updated with an appropriate value.
  [# 676450]

• User-account lockout details for a AAA virtual server cannot be configured at the global level, but only at the AAA virtual server level, because the maxLoginAttempts and failedlogintimeout parameters are not supported at the global level.
  [# 483521]

• If you log on to the NetScaler Traffic Management (TM) virtual server using "401 Basic" authentication, you might observe authentication failures if your username or password contains special characters. This is because only UTF-8 characters below ASCII 128 (for example, A-Z, a-z, 0-9, and ~ ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) _ + - = [ { ] } \ | ; : ' " / ? . > , < special characters) are allowed.
  [# 620845, 589509, 650263, 672340]

• The NetScaler implementation of Kerberos does not fully implement the ktutil functionality. While this does not affect Kerberos authentication, it restricts some administrative tasks, such as the ability to merge keytab files.
  [# 551091]

• Applications that use the AJAX model for logon cannot use the forms-based SSO approach.
  [# 595019]

• When executing the "unlock aaa user" command, the NetScaler appliance does not check whether that account was actually locked.
  [# 483544]

• In release 10.5, moving to a higher authentication level is not supported for 401-enabled load balancing virtual servers.
  [# 645501]

Application Firewall

• A NetScaler AppFirewall appliance with the compression feature enabled sometimes puts blank lines in HTTP response headers, resulting in garbled page rendering by the browser.
  [# 629128]

• When you bind an application firewall policy to a content switching virtual server, the binding is shown as an application flow policy binding instead of an application firewall binding.
  [# 635794]

• Field consistency violations occur when you attempt to access some websites. When you check NetScaler application firewall field consistency logs, the field name entry is missing from the log files.
  [# 660638]

• If the server sends less data than the amount specified in the Content-length header, the NetScaler application firewall might send a 9845 response and reset the connection.
  [# 506653]

• A NetScaler application firewall appliance is unable to block cross-site scripting attack with a character entity when the POST method is used.
  [# 682643]

• If the user sends a request that contains the string "Javascript" without a non-alphanumeric delimeter, the Cross-Site Scripting check does not block the request. This is expected behavior. Without a delimiter, the keyword "Javascript" cannot trigger code execution and therefore poses no threat to the protected web application.
  [# 457926, 506333]

• The application firewall Graphical User Interface might display a warning when the Qualys signature file is uploaded to the NetScaler appliance. The transformation program that reads the input file is treating a warning message as an error.
  [# 547282]

• When using IE, an RFC violation occurs when submitting a form with Form Field Name and value triggering the request as malformed multipart request. This issue does not occur in Chrome or Firefox.

  The correct format of the request should be; Content-Disposition: form-data; name="<fld_name>".
  [# 688390]

• A NetScaler ADC that has the application firewall feature enabled might reset the connection after a protected web server issues an HTTP 204 response.
  [# 427798]

• High management CPU is reported on secondary node on a NetScaler appliance HA deployment. This occurs when the appliance attempts to directly connect to AWS for signature auto updates. Instead, it should sync from the primary node.

  Workaround: Disable “Auto Update” and perform manual signature Update when required.
  [# 645463]

• Application Firewall port information about open ports, such as port 443, is not suppressed. It can therefore be detected by port scan tools such as NMAP in targeted hacker attacks.
  [# 674864]

• The application firewall has memory limitations on the size of a WSDL that can be imported into the NetScaler appliance. The import operation might fail if the size of the WSDL file exceeds the allocated memory.
  [# 349504]

Cisco RISE Integration

• In a vPC-Direct deployment for RISE, shutting a (RISE) service on the N7k removes the component links from the static LA channel on the NetScaler. They are however still part of the port channel on the N7k and could result in dropped traffic. It is recommended that the administrator manually shut down the port channel as well, on the N7k, when the corresponding RISE service is shut down.
  [# 502591]

Clustering

• When Layer 2 mode and MBF are enabled in a cluster deployment, access to * 80 services can fail intermittently.
  [# 479899]

Configuration Utility

• If you use the MAC Safari browser to upgrade a NetScaler ADC and, in the upgrade wizard, you click the browse button to choose a build file on the appliance, the dialog box does not show any files or folders. If you navigate back to the root folder, the dialog box displays the top level folder, but you cannot browse the files in the folder.

  Workaround: Click the Settings icon and navigate to Preferences > Security > Manage Website Settings > Java, and then change the When visiting other websites setting to Run in unsafe mode.
  [# 466245, 475388]

DNS

• Contrary to the information provided in the documentation, DNS Views prevent service selection if a service is not bound to the View.
  [# 580259]

GSLB

• If you rename a server associated with a GSLB service and then run the sync gslb command, the GSLB configuration might not synchronize to the other GSLB sites.

  Workaround:

  Manually update the server name on the other GSLB sites.
  [# 511994]

High Availability

• When upgrading HA nodes that have Web Interface on NetScaler (WIonNS) build 126.x, the updates made in the Webinterface.conf file are overwritten by the previous version of the file. This is due to the rolling upgrade of HA nodes or due to the file sync operation between HA nodes.

  To avoid this issue, use the following steps when upgrading the HA nodes:

  1. Before upgrading, run the "set ns param -internaluserlogin DISABLED" command.

  2. Upgrade the secondary HA node to NetScaler release 10.1 build 126.x.

  3. Force failover to make the upgraded node the primary node.

  4. Upgrade the other HA node to NetScaler release 10.1 build 126.x.

  5. Re-enable the "internaluserlogin" parameter with the "set ns param -internaluserlogin ENABLED" command.

  6. Save the configurations.

  Note: Before upgrading synchronize files between the HA nodes by using the "sync ha files all" command.
  [# 471294]

Integrated Caching

• A VPX system can repeatedly fail if HA cache persistence is used along with HTML-injection.
  [# 581598]

Load Balancing

• If a service group member is assigned a wildcard port (port *), the monitor details for that service group member can be viewed from the Monitor Details page.
  [# 671729]

• If a NetScaler appliance sending a DNSSEC negative response over UDP is not able to include the required records (for example, SOA, NSECs, and RRSIG records) in the Authority section, the appliance might send a truncated response in the wrong packet format.
  [# 540965]

• The Citrix-WI-Extended monitor cannot be used if the Web Interface server is not set up for explicit authentication mode.
  [# 480852]

• After a high availability failover, Web Interface on NetScaler displays "State Error" if you try to launch an application.
  [# 630435]

NetScaler CLI

• When you use the Net::SSH::Perl library to connect to the NetScaler appliance, and run a command with an argument that has an @ character, an error message reports that the argument does not exist.

  For example, an error message appears if you use the @ character in the tacacsSecret parameter of the following command:

  > set authentication tacacsAction TACACS-0101 -tacacsSecret Sl4make5f0rd@enc5

  Workaround: Use one of the following alternate approaches:

  - If you use the Net::SSH::Perl library, include double quotes around the command when calling $ssh->cmd().

  - Use the Net::Telnet library.

  - Use the Net::SSH::Expect library.
  [# 346066]

NetScaler GUI

• When you use the XenMobile wizard to configure load balancing for XenMobile 10, the server certificates for the device management services being load balanced are not automatically bound for application management services also being load balanced. The server certificates for application management load balancing services must be manually bound during the wizard flow.
  [# 524762]

• If you use the Google Chrome browser to access the NetScaler configuration utility and use the browse button to select a local file, the selected file name displays in the respective field. However, if you click the Browse button again to select a different file, and then, cancel the operation, the previously selected file name is cleared from the field.
  [# 531567]

• When using the expression editor to modify an existing expression, select the expression and click Expression Editor. Alternatively, you can modify the expression directly in the text field.
  [# 483421]

• On a NetScaler instance deployed on Azure, the welcome page in the GUI prompts you to enter a SNIP address, but a SNIP address is not required to configure NetScaler VPX on Azure. You can skip this step.
  [# 559971]

• You cannot create load balancing virtual servers or NetScaler Gateway virtual servers with the same name pattern used for virtual servers created in the XenMobile wizards.
  [# 485698]

• If you use a Chrome browser to access the NetScaler graphical user interface (GUI), the browser might display the Page Unresponsive error message.

  Workaround:

  If you are using a Windows computer, do the following:

  1. Right-click the shortcut icon that you use to open the Chrome browser, and select Properties from the pop-up menu.

  2. In the Google Chrome Properties dialog box, click the Shortcut tab and, in the Target field, append the following value: --disable-hang-monitor

  For example: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe --disable-hang-monitor" http://www.google.com

  3. Close all instances of the Chrome browser, and restart the Chrome browser.

  If you are using a MAC computer, do the following:

  1. Open the terminal.

  2. Launch the Chrome browser from the terminal and append the --disable-hang-monitor value, as follows:

  open -a /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app --args --disable-hang-monitor
  [# 400073, 401262]

• If you create a load balancing virtual server with a name matching the pattern _XM_LB_MDM the XenMobile dashboard might display incorrect port values.
  [# 486590]

• The Service hits and Service hits (Rate) counters by the "stat services" command do not apply to services, but to the service-virtual server binding. These counters are displayed in the graphical view of services and should be ignored.
  [# 538057]

NetScaler Gateway

• Currently, users can bind different VPN virtual servers to only one node group. Binding a VPN virtual server across multiple node group is not supported.
  [# 443118]

• If you configure advanced endpoint analysis policies, endpoint analysis encryption, a proxy server, and client certification authentication, the NetScaler Gateway Plug-in does not connect and users receive the error message " 2017: Your computer does not have the necessary security software to connect to the NetScaler Gateway. Please contact your system administrator."
  [# 466641]

• If users log on to Outlook Web App by using clientless access in a Firefox web browser, sending email fails.
  [# 418106, 418880]

• The NetScaler AAA daemon can fail during authentication. The "kevent: errno =12" error message is displayed under stress conditions when the RADIUS user accounting is turned on. The failure is due to the system limit is reached with respect to timers.

  Workaround: Increase the system limit for the timers.
  [# 551286]

• If Pre-Auth EPA is configured and the EPA Plugin is installed, the NPAPI prompts to "Launch Application" before the VPN Plugin is installed. First, download the VPN Plugin, then launch the application.
  [# 583435]

• XenMobile and NetScaler Gateway have different licensing methods. XenMobile has per-user licensing, while NetScaler Gateway has per-session licensing. The same user logging in from multiple devices consumes only one license on XenMobile, but consumes multiple licenses on the NetScaler Gateway appliance.
  [# 626160]

• If you enable the Green Bubble theme and then clear the entire NetScaler configuration, the Green Bubble theme remains instead of reverting back to the Default theme. To reset the value, you can run the command "set vn para uitheme <value>".
  [# 478536, 626974]

• After an upgrade from NetScaler 10.1 release to 10.5 release, the appliance's logon screen might not show the password text box. If manual customizations are made using the older build's, GUI files might lead to the absence of the password field on the NetScaler Gateway logon page.
  [# 489302]

• For customers upgrading their Mac clients from version older than 2.1.3 (224), the DeviceCert check will always fail. Workaround - quit the mac client and start the client again. DeviceCert will work as expected.
  [# 421925]

• When users log on for the first time by using the NetScaler Gateway Plug-in for Mac, the Safari web browser starts the endpoint analysis web page instead of the NetScaler Gateway Plug-in download page.
  [# 454662]

• In a GSLB setup, the EPA scan fails intermittently, and the appliance reports a 403 error.
  [# 588537]

• When there is a multiplexing proxy in the path between the client and Gateway, users will see 403 errors while accessing the Gateway login page. So, connection multiplexing/connection reuse should be turned off by the intervening proxy (NS LB SSL in this case).
  [# 564602]

• In addition to the logon page with the user name and password fields, the NetScaler ADC now offers an advanced logon page with support for dynamic form providers for interactive authentication. The dynamic form providers on the advanced logon page can be invoked if you use the Citrix default syntax to configure authentication policies.
  [# 477616]

• If you created a Netscaler Gateway virtual server by using the Quick Configuration wizard in NetScaler Gateway 10.1, the virtual server needs to be renamed with the prefix _XM_. For example, if the original virtual server name is XMGateway, you must manually rename it to _XM_Gateway. By changing the name with the correct prefix, you can see the virtual server in the wizard.
  [# 484962]

• If FIPS mode is enabled and a SAML operation involving certificate-key structure is performed, the NetScaler appliance dumps core memory and restarts because it references inaccessible memory in the certificate-key structure. 
  [# 645906, 652648]

• If PKINIT is employed to obtain a Kerberos ticket to a backend server, while the session on NetScaler is still active, if the certificate of the user expires, then SingleSignOn to backend server fails until session on NetScaler is cleared.
  [# 569444]

• The strict node group is not being backed up and the virtual server only binds to one mode.
  [# 443584]

• Documentation includes the config changes related to the DNS refactoring changes as part of Tagma release.
  [# 487245]

• If you enable a proxy server and disable ICA proxy in a session profile, users are not able to start published applications.
  [# 470220]

• Earlier versions of the NetScaler Gateway Plug-in do not support OPSWAT endpoint analysis scans. When users connect to NetScaler Gateway, logon fails because the earlier version of the plug-in does not support OPSWAT endpoint analysis scans. Users can log on from a web browser and then select Network Access, which starts the upgrade to the latest version of the NetScaler Gateway Plug-in and the Endpoint Analysis Plug-in.
  [# 454670]

NetScaler Insight Center

• The hop diagram for current session applications does not show the link between the CloudBridge device and the server.

  Workaround: Refresh the page.
  [# 483122, 502260]

• The Web Insight reports might not include geo maps for some locations.

  Workaround: The tabular representation displays the details.
  [# 484578]

• If you assign read-only permission to a NetScaler appliance when you add it to NetScaler Insight Center, the AppFlow configuration on that appliance cannot be changed.
  [# 408244]

• Gateway Insight does not report the FQDNs for non-HTTP applications, such as SSH and FTP, on the Applications page. Instead, it reports the destination IP addresses on that page.
  [# 622219]

• If AppFlow for ICA is enabled on a NetScaler Gateway deployed in a double-hop mode, and if MAC Receiver is used to launch audio or video applications, the NetScaler reports an error counter and triggers skipflow for this session, resulting in NetScaler Insight Center reports not being displayed for that session.
  [# 520394]

• Session reliability fails and the ICA session does not resume if the session between NetScaler Gateway and a XenApp or XenDesktop server is disconnected because an intermediate router sends a TCP reset. This issue occurs even if you have enabled or disabled data collection for HDX Insight.
  [# 510871]

• If you have configured the ICA session timeout value to a high value, say 10 minutes or more, and there is no traffic flow from the NetScaler appliances, neither the timeline chart nor the tabular chart displays any data. However, the Active sessions and Active Desktops columns display the data until the ICA session timeout occurs.
  [# 536056]

• In some situations, the tables shown in the exported reports might not have borders.
  [# 471239]

NetScaler SDX Appliance

• The current software driver for 1G ports does not support hot-swap capability for 1G SFP transceivers on NetScaler SDX 115xx models.

  Workaround: After replacing the 1G SFP transceiver, reset the interface from Management Service. If the issue still persists, restart the appliance.
  [# 668696]

• Modifying interface operations from the Management Service is not supported with Cisco BD qsfp type.
  [# 634273]

• The default setting for auto-negotiation is OFF, which causes an error if you configure the interface from the Management Service.
  [# 598688]

• Using the Config Reset option in the Management Service to reset the configuration of a NetScaler SDX appliance does not remove the SNMP Manager configuration.

  Workaround: Manually delete the SNMP Manager configuration from the NetScaler SDX appliance.
  [# 650536]

• The Management Service displays only 1000 virtual servers on a NetScaler VPX instance hosted on a NetScaler SDX appliance, even if more than 1000 virtual servers are configured on the instance.

  Workaround: Manage the virtual servers directly from the NetScaler VPX instance, instead of using the Management Service.
  [# 645987]

• If an LACP channel is bound to nine or more interfaces and is a member of a tagged VLAN, deleting the channel from a service VM can cause the NetScaler appliance to fail intermittently.
  [# 524320, 630772]

• Regardless of which NetScaler SDX platform license you have installed on the NetScaler SDX appliance, the show hardware command always displays the default platform model, NSSDX 18500.
  [# 622841]

• In rare cases, the link aggregation (LA) channels might flap if both of the following conditions are met:

  - LACP is configured.

  - You use Management Service release 10.5 and XenServer release 6.1.

  If such flapping occurs, the appliance disables the interface and renegotiates LACP with the peer device. This might result in the LA channel being disabled. In an HA setup, this could cause a failover if the channel is connected to a critical interface and the node is primary.

  Workaround: Do either of the following:

  - Upgrade the SDX platform to 11.x (Management Service version = 11.x and XenServer version = 6.5).

  - Configure the LA channels manually instead of using LACP.
  [# 637403, 621301, 642536, 652899]

NetScaler VPX Appliance

• NetScaler VPX instances running on Hyper-V 2012 might consume a high percentage of CPU cycles while processing 2G traffic.
  [# 512284]

• NetScaler VPX cannot be directly imported into Hyper-V on Windows Server 2012 R2 using the "Import Virtual Machine" function of Hyper-V Manager.

  Workaround: Create the VPX instance by using the New > Virtual Machine function and connecting the "Dynamic.vhd" file from the Virtual Hard Disks directory which is present after unzipping the release image.

  Note: The newly created VPX instance MUST be configured with a minimum of 2GB memory and with 2 vcpus; setting the vcpus is done by changing the virtual machine settings after the instance is created, but before booting.
  [# 428107]

• The NetScaler VPX appliances are now supported on VMware ESX server version 6.0.
  [# 592395]

Networking

• In an active-active high availability configuration using Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) protocol, a ping to a virtual IP address (VIP) might fail from a node that is a backup node for this VIP address.
  [# 485260]

• The NetScaler appliance does not support IPIP tunnels on the client side.
  [# 623671]

• In an HA configuration in INC mode running the OSPF routing protocol, the secondary node drops all L3 traffic that has the destination that was advertised by the secondary node.
  [# 318684]

• Configuring a Link Load Balancing virtual server as backup to a Load Balancing virtual server is not supported.
  [# 564040, 587817]

• If you have enabled Source IP persistency on multiple IPv4 RNAT rules that have the same condition but with different NAT IP addresses, the NetScaler command line and the configuration utility display Source IP Persistency as ENABLED for only one of these rules.
  [# 459679]

• A ZebOS API call to a NetScaler ADC fails when the ns ipv6-routing command is part of the input routing config set.
  [# 439294]

• High availability (HA) synchronization does not work properly after you upgrade an HA setup from a release 10.5 beta build to a GA build.

  Workaround: Disable HA propagation and HA synchronization before upgrading the HA setup, and enable them after the upgrade process is complete.
  [# 486131]

• The IS-IS level 1-2 adjacency between NetScaler ADC and Cisco Nexus Router might flap.
  [# 485385]

• If a NetScaler appliance on which the cache redirection feature is enabled supports jumbo frames on the client-side connection but not supported on the server-side connection, the client-side connection behaves as a regular connection.
  [# 422858]

• When the NetScaler appliance forwards packets that are larger than the interface's MTU value, the appliance fragments the packets into 2048-byte packets, regardless of the MTU value configured.

  For example, if the appliance forwards a 9000-byte packet on an interface that you have configured with an MTU of 4000, the appliance fragments the 9000-byte packets into 2048-byte packets.
  [# 429006]

Platform

• In an Openstack Environment, if a custom flavor with an Ephemeral Disk of size of less than 8GB is used to a start a NetScaler VPX or Cisco Nexus 1000v instance, the config drive is not attached to the instance.
  [# 578366]

• If you add an NTP time server by specifying the server name (host name), and the ns.conf file is very large, the result is a race condition in which the NTP daemon (NTPD) is started before host name services are ready.

  Workaround: Do one of the following:

  -Restart the NTP daemon after starting the NetScaler appliance.

  -Add the NTP server by specifying the IP address of the server instead of specifying the host name.
  [# 573306]

Policies

• After a restart, a NetScaler auto-provision daemon fails to communicate with the configuration engine.
  [# 604823]

• A log message is not logged for the Responder module when the NetScaler appliance receives a request and processes policies for a different module while a client request sent to the Responder module awaits log processing.
  [# 685375]

• While evaluating default syntax expression for local time zone, a NetScaler appliance incorrectly applies US daylight savings time (DST) rules in non-US time zone. This results in setting an offset time for an hour. For example, the default expression !(SYS.TIME.GE (LOCAL 8h) & SYS.TIME.LE(LOCAL 17h)) returns 'False' if the local time in US time zone is between 0800 and 1700. In the UK time zone, this expression incorrectly returns 'False' if the local time is between 0700 and 0759 and returns 'True' if the local time is between 1700 and 1759 from 8 Mar 2015 (the start of US DST) to 28 Mar 2015 (the day before the start of UK DST) and also from 25 Oct 2015 (the day after the end of UK DST) to 31 Oct (the day before the end of US DST).
  [# 556230]

SSL

• On the CLIP node of a NetScaler cluster, a blank value appears in the Client Cert Required field when you run the sh ssl service nshttps-127.0.0.1-443 command, even though client authentication is enabled on the internal services.
  [# 661950]

• A "certificate mismatch" error message appears if the order of certificates in the .pfx file is not as follows:

  - Server certificate (should be the first certificate in the file)

  - Intermediate certificate(s)

  - Root CA certificate

  The server key can be anywhere in the file.
  [# 535145]

• In a cluster setup, the CRL distribution points in a CA certificate-key pair configured on the cluster IP address do not appear when you run the show ssl certkey command.
  [# 691929]

• A few extra messages appear in the output if you run the show command for the back-end SSL service, service groups, or internal services on a cluster IP address.
  [# 669064]

• An incorrect error message is displayed in both the following cases:

  1. Client authentication is enabled, root CA certificate is not bound to the SSL virtual server, and a request with a valid client certificate is sent to the virtual server.

  2. Client authentication is enabled, root CA certificate is bound to the SSL virtual server, and a request with a wrong certificate is sent to the virtual server.

  The error message that appears is "Handshake failure-Internal Error" instead of "No client certificate received."
  [# 664574]

• In some cases, a NetScaler appliance might crash if it finds invalid data while parsing the binary certificate.
  [# 694904]

• If you try to add a certificate bundle with the complete path to a certificate-bundle file, an error message appears. For example,

  > add ssl certkey bundle -cert /nsconfig/ssl/bundle3.pem -key /nsconfig/ssl/bundle3.pem -bundle YES

  ERROR: Processing of certificate bundle file failed.

  Workaround: Specify only the file name. For example,

  > add ssl certkey bundle -cert bundle3.pem -key /nsconfig/ssl/bundle3.pem -bundle YES
  [# 481878, 521933]

• If you update a certificate-key pair from DER to PEM format, the message "Invalid Certificate" appears.

  Workaround: Add "-inform PEM" in the update command.
  [# 630248]

• The output of the "show SSLlogProfile" command does not display the entities to which the log profile is bound.
  [# 658756]

• SSL classic policy expressions are not honored.

  Workaround: Use SSL default policy expressions.
  [# 692137]

• If CRL auto refresh is enabled and the LDAP method is selected, the following, incorrect, error message appears: "Either URL or server-IP required on CRL."

  This message should indicate that a server IP address is required.
  [# 459987]

• An incorrect error message appears if you try to associate an SSL log profile with an SSL action of type DATA INSERTION.
  [# 653279]

• On a NetScaler VPX instance, an error message does not appear if you enable TLS protocol version 1.1 or 1.2 on the backend SSL service or backend SSL profile. These protocols are not supported on a backend SSL service or profile.
  [# 658396]

• In a cluster setup, if a client certificate is bound to a back-end SSL service or service group, it appears as a "Server Certificate" instead of a "Client Certificate" when you run the "show ssl service" or the "show ssl servicegroup" command on the CLIP address.
  [# 667389]

• Deprecated commands might be lost from the configuration (ns.conf file) after you upgrade to a build that supports the default SSL profile.
  [# 598974, 671233]

• On a platform that has N3 chips, you cannot use the NetScaler GUI to bind ECDHE, AES-GCM, or SHA2 cipher groups to a back-end service or service group, because these cipher groups are not listed in the GUI.

  Workaround: Use the NetScaler command line. At the NetScaler command prompt, type:

  bind ssl service <serviceName> -cipherName <string>

  To bind a cipher to a service group, replace service with servicegroup in the above command.
  [# 640546]

• In a cluster setup, if you include the "cipherdetails" option in the "show ssl service" or "show ssl vserver" command, an incorrect message appears. This is only a display issue.

  For example,

  > show ssl service svc1 -cipherDetails

  ERROR: No such resource [serviceName, svc1]
  [# 402423]

• If you use the add crl command in release 9.3 to add a certificate revocation list (CRL) with refresh enabled, and you don't specify a method, the add crl command returns an error after an upgrade to a later release. Unlike 9.3, later releases do not have a default method.
  [# 604061]

• The SSL entities to which a policy is bound do not appear in the output of the "show ssl policy" command if it is run on the cluster IP address.
  [# 668520]

• Backend client authentication is not supported on the NetScaler MPX 5900 and MPX 8900 platforms.
  [# 681103]

• If you run the "sh ssl service group" command on the cluster IP (CLIP) address and on nodes of a cluster setup, ECC curves are displayed as unbound from the CLIP.
  [# 660257]

• The description string of a cipher in the output of the "show ssl service" command differs if the command is run on the NetScaler IP address and on the cluster IP address.
  [# 669128]

System

• Downloading a file over a TCP connection in which the client side has a non-jumbo MSS (less than or equal to 1460 bytes) and the server side has a jumbo MSS (greater than or equal to 1460 bytes), causes a slight increase in latency.
  [# 428209]

• A NetScaler appliance might not honor persistence for a load balancing virtual server with a wildcard configuration if information about the back-end server is not available.
  [# 556385]

• FreeBSD version for Auditlog Server

  For NetScaler 10.5 and later releases, the auditlog server fails to start if it is deployed on a FreeBSD 6.3 system.

  Background: In this release, the NetScaler supports auditlog servers on FreeBSD 8.4. Therefore, auditlog servers that are deployed on FreeBSD 6.3 systems will not start.

  Workaround: Upgrade to FreeBSD OS on which you have the auditlog server, from 6.3 to 8.4.
  [# 447571]

• Wireshark Version for Getting NetScaler Trace

  Wireshark is required to open nstrace files (cap and pcap). For NetScaler 10.5 and later releases, Wireshark must be upgraded to version 1.11.3 or any later version. You can download the latest version from: https://www.wireshark.org/download.html.
  [# 462557]

• For virtual servers and services using the default TCP profile (nstcp_default_profile) with the MSS parameter set to zero, the NetScaler appliance uses 1460 as the value for TCP MSS instead of using a value based on interface MTU and VLAN MTU.
  [# 472833]

• The NetScaler appliance may display messages that are a result of file system compatibility checks that are performed when booting up. These messages are informational only, and do not have any adverse impact on the functioning of the NetScaler.
  [# 452382, 459464, 530627]

• When you log web transactions on a web server and on a NSWL server, the cs user name is properly logged in the web server while the user name is logged as a hypen (-) instead of a user name. This issue occurs when you specify a %u in the field format.
  [# 238440, 239481, 247372, 422873]

• Data transmission from client to NetScaler appliance over a reused connection is slow, at a rate that varies. The result is an excessive delay for a subsequent HTTP request.
  [# 691984]

• The updated host name for a NetScaler appliance does not appear on the LCD panel until after the appliance is restarted.
  [# 560854]

• If you access a NetScaler appliance from the GUI, the TCP/IP Connection page supports only a set of classic and advanced policy expressions as a filter. If you use an unsupported expression as a filter, the NetScaler GUI does not display a warning message, and using the unsupported expression leads to an appliance failure.

  Note: You can type the show connectiontable command to view the list of supportable expressions.
  [# 614494]

• If a client using the NITRO API over HTTPS to connect to a NetScaler appliance reuses the same source IP address and port within two TCP maximum segment lifetime (MSL) timeout intervals, the connection might be dropped with a TCP reset. Similarly, client TCP connections might be dropped under the following set of conditions:

  * Source IP address is enabled and proxy port disabled in the client's connection request.

  * A previous server connection still exists on the appliance and has persisted for two TCP MSL timeout intervals.
  [# 692613]

• Data might be dropped when a client requests a small window size. When client sends a small window size (less than 8190 bytes) in its request packet to a NetScaler appliance, the appliance advertises a window size of 8190 bytes to the back-end server. Upon receiving this information, the server sends up to 8190 bytes of data to the appliance, and in turn the appliance, in transparent mode, sends the same amount of data to the client, even if the actual window size is less than the window size advertised by the client. If a device between the appliance and client checks the window size before accepting the data, that device might drop the data that does not fit in the client's window size.

  Workaround: Enable the end point processing features on NetScaler to control the complete TCP stack independently. Such features are TCP Buffering, SSL Offload and so on.
  [# 622573]

• If, when you reboot a NetScaler appliance, the SNMP agent starts before the system monitoring application, the agent reads the Voltage and Fan Speed counter values as zero and sends low-threshold traps. Then, when the system monitoring application starts and updates the counter values, if the values are still less than the threshold values, the SMNP agent does not send traps to clear the low-threshold traps.

  Workaround: Set the alarm threshold value as described at https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/netscaler-hardware-platforms/mpx/netscaler-hardware-system-health-attributes.html.
  [# 571914]

• When you run the set command on a NetScaler appliance, the ns.log file stores the command with all parameter values, including customer provided values.
  [# 674165]

• In a high availability environment, if you add Network Time Protocol (NTP) to a primary node by specifying the NTP server's DNS name, the command is not propagated to the secondary node.

  Workaround: Specify the NTP server's IP address.
  [# 639529]

• The NetScaler appliance does not initiate subflows (MP_JOIN's). The appliance expects the client to initiate subflows.
  [# 694416]

• When configuring Web Interface sites through the wizard, when the "Trust ssl certificate" option is checked, certificates bound to the VPN virtual server are not imported to the JVM.

  Workaround: You must import the certificates manually by executing the following command from the shell prompt:

  > /netscaler/wi/export_cert.sh
  [# 481008]

• A NetScaler appliance fails if multiple vulnerabilities are observed in the Network Time Protocol (NTP) daemon and if it is exploited by an external or local user authentication.
  [# 669821, 670476, 688886, 685045]

• With USIP enabled, MPTCP requests do not go through.
  [# 331338]

• The "unset authentication localPolicy" command is removed from this version onwards.
  [# 483524]

• A NetScaler device might fail if it sends FIN packets on a Multipath TCP (MPTCP) fallback connection and the global state variable has not been cleared.
  [# 684574, 685357, 687357]

• Virtual servers to which a listen policy is bound accept connections from the first subflow only.
  [# 400861]

• MPTCP does not support FTP data connections.
  [# 400819]

Upgrade and Downgrade

• You cannot log on to the NetScaler appliance after upgrading its firmware. This issue is caused by insufficient storage space. To verify that is the problem, check to see if the /var directory is 100% full. To fix the problem, delete unnecessary files. The following procedure is recommended:

  1) At the shell prompt, type the df -h command to display the disk-usage statistics. If they indicate that the /var directory is full, take the following steps.

  2) Check for any trace files in the /var/nstrace directory. Delete unnecessary files. Back up required files, including files that need to be analyzed, to a location outside the NetScaler appliance.

  Note: For more information about how to back up NetScaler files, see

  https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/netscaler/10-5/ns-system-wrapper-10-con/ns-sys-basic-operations-wrapper-con/ns-sys-backup-restore-tsk.html

  3) Check for files in the /var/core or /var/crash directory. These files indicate a problematic condition and should be analyzed. Back up these files to a location outside the NetScaler appliance and send them to Citrix Technical Support for further analysis. Delete the backed up files from the NetScaler appliance.

  4) Check for any user-initiated downloads, such as build files, and delete the older ones. Generally, build files are downloaded to the /var/nsinstall directory.

  For more information about how to free up storage space, see https://support.citrix.com/article/CTX133588
  [# 638818]

• When you upgrade the NetScaler firmware by using the NetScaler GUI, the appliance restarts in the background as soon as the upgrade is complete, but the GUI does not show that the upgrade has been completed.

  Workaround: Log off and log back on to the NetScaler appliance to check the firmware version.
  [# 646046]

User Interface

• The names of GSLB entities are case sensitive. If you have entities with the same name in different cases (uppercase or lowercase) on different nodes in your GSLB deployment, GSLB synchronization fails.

  Workaround:

  Change the entity names so that the same name is always in same case (either uppercase or lowercase).
  [# 533475]

Web Interface on NetScaler (WIonNS)

• If the NetScaler appliance is upgraded from version 10.1 to 10.5 and the maxSite setting of Web Interface on NetScaler is 3, the system does not have sufficient memory to handle 5000 users accessing Web Interface on NetScaler.
  [# 601304]

• On a NetScaler ADC, if WIHome is configured to point to an IPv6 load balancing virtual server that points to the IPv6 StoreFront services, a user trying to log on receives a 500 Internal Server Error message.

  Workaround: Remove the IPv6 load balancing virtual server configuration and configure WIHome to point directly to the StoreFront server URL.
  [# 397150]

AAA-TM

• Responder After AAA

  On a NetScaler ADC that has AAA configured, the ADC now invokes responder policies after authenticating users. Previously, users could not bookmark the authentication sign-on page. This limitation no longer exists.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 258274, 258277]

• Web-based Authentication

  AAA-TM is now able to authenticate a user to a web server, providing the credentials that the web server requires in an HTTP request and analyzing the web server response to determine that user authentication was successful.

  To set up web-based authentication with a specific web server, first you create a web authentication action. Since authentication to web servers does not use a rigid format, you must specify exactly which information the web server requires and in which format when creating the action. To do this, you create an expression in NetScaler default syntax. Next you create a policy associated with that action. The policy is similar to an LDAP policy, and like LDAP policies uses NetScaler classic syntax.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 431391]

• Extracting SAML Attributes from Keytab

  The AAA Negotiate Action command can now extract user information from a keytab file instead of requiring you to enter that information manually. If a keytab has more than one SPN, AAA selects the correct SPN. You can configure this feature at the NetScaler command line, or by using the configuration utility.

  To configure AAA to extract user information from a keytab file at the command line, type the appropriate command:

  add authentication negotiateAction <name> [-keytab <string>]

  set authentication negotiateAction <name> [-keytab <string>]

  For <name>, substitute the name of the negotiateAction. If you are adding a new action, the name can be from one to 127 characters in length and can consist of upper- and lowercase letters, numbers, and the hyphen (-) and underscore (_) characters. For <string>, substitute the full path and filename of the keytab file that you want to use.

  To configure AAA to extract user information from a keytab file by using the configuration utility, do the following steps:

  1) Open Security, AAA, Policies, Authentication, Negotiate.

  2) In the Data pane, click the Servers tab.

  3) Do one of the following:

  * If you want to create a new Negotiate action, click Add.

  * If you want to modify an existing Negotiate action, in the data pane select the action, and then click Edit.

  4) If you are creating a new Negotiate action, in the Name text box, type a name for your new action.

  The name can be from one to 127 characters in length and can consist of upper- and lowercase letters, numbers, and the hyphen (-) and underscore (_) characters.

  If you are modifying an existing Negotiate action, skip this step. The name is read-only; you cannot change it.

  5) Under Negotiate, if the Use Keytab file check box is not already checked, check it.

  6) In the Keytab file path text box, type the full path and filename of the keytab file that you want to use.

  7) In the Default authentication group text box, type the authentication group that you want to set as default for this user.

  8) Click Create or OK to save your changes.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 405134]

• NetScaler as SAML IDP

  The NetScaler ADC can now act as a SAML identity provider (IDP). As an IDP, the ADP accepts SAML tokens from user sthat request access to a protected application, redirecting users to the SAML service provider (SP) logon page to authenticate. After the user authenticates, the ADC generates a SAML assertion that grants access to the protected resource and redirects the user to it. When the user logs out or is logged out by any SP, the ADC sends logout requests to all other SPs that the user accessed during the current session and terminates the session.

  For more information, see the NetScaler documentation.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 406525]

• With previous versions of the NetScaler ADC, OWA 2010 connections did not timeout because OWA sends repeated keepalive requests to the server to prevent timeouts, which interfered with single sign-n and posed a security risk. AAA-tm now supports forced timeouts that ensure that OWA 2010 sessions timeout after the specified period of inactivity.

  For more information and configuration instructions, see the documentation.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 247952, 419622, 426196]

• KCD Performance Improvements

  When creating a KCD Account with a delegated user certificate and CA certificate, AAA now searches the /nsconfig/ssl directory for the two certificate files, where those certificates are kept, instead of searching /nsconfig/krb.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 412687]

• AAA-TM can now be configured to authenticate users with an external RADIUS or LDAP authentication server at a specific FQDN instead of only at a specific IP. Configuration via FQDN can simplify an otherwise much more complex AAA configuration in environments where the authentication server might appear on any of several IPs, but always uses a single FQDN.

  Note: When you configure AAA to authenticate to an external server via FQDN instead of IP, you add an extra step to the authentication process because the ADC must resolve the FQDN each time that it authenticates a user. If a great many users attempt to authenticate simultaneously, the DNS lookups might slow the authentication process.

  To configure authentication by using a server's FQDN instead of IP, follow the normal configuration process except when creating the authentication action, where you substitute the serverName parameter for the serverIP parameter, as shown below:

  > add authentication ldapAction <name> -serverName <serverName>

  > add authentication radiusAction <name> -serverName <serverName>

  For <serverName>, substitute the fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) of the LDAP or RADIUS authentication server.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 338718, 314443]

• Authentication Server Stickiness

  After a user authenticates successfully to an LDAP, RADIUS, or TACACS authentication or authorization server, the NetScaler ADC now connects to the same server for subsequent user authentications or authorizations. When a primary server is unavailable, this feature prevents delays while the ADC waits for the first server to time out before resending the request to the second server.

  For example, assume that you have AAA configured on your ADC with three authentication policies--authpol1, authpol2, and authpol3--with priorities set to 10, 20, and 30 respectively. A user requests authentication, and the ADC discovers that the authentication server behind authpol1 does not respond to authentication requests. The ADC then tries authpol2, which responds. When other users attempt to authenticate after this situation occurs, the ADC skips authpol1 and proceeds directly to authpol2.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 358894]

• Unlocking Locked-Out User Accounts

  You can now unlock a user account that was locked out after too many failed logon attempts or after repeated violations of logon attempt time slice limits. To unlock a locked-out user account by using the configuration utility, navigate to Security > AAA-Application Traffic > Users. In the data pane, select the user account to unlock, and then in the Actions drop-down list, choose Unlock. To unlock a locked-out user account from the command line, type the following command:

  unlock aaa user <userName>
  [From Build 50.10] [# 437164]

• NetScaler Default Expressions support for authentication subsystem

  AAA-TM now supports NetScaler default syntax expressions in the following parts of the authentication subsystem:

  * Authentication policy rules. You can use default syntax expressions as Authentication policy rules. The default syntax expression editor now appears in the configuration utility when you create or configure an authentication policy, From the command line, you can simply use default syntax to create the rule for your policy and AAA-TM will recognize and implement it.

  * Authentication policy bindings. Authentication policies, when bound, can each be associated with the "nextFactor" policyset. The nextFactor policyset is evaluated if the policy to which it is associated succeeds. nextFactor support permits policy pairing and grouping, and allows you to create cascading chains of policies all of which can be evaluated in turn. There is no upper limit to the number of policies that can be chained in this manner.

  All policies bound to a single authentication server must be either NetScaler default syntax policies or NetScaler classic syntax policies. You cannot mix both types of policy on a single authentication server.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 418615]

• Renegotiate Support for Certificate-based Policies

  AAA-TM now prompts for the client certificate only when it requires the certificate to authenticate a user, not every time that a protected application requests authentication. It retrieves the certificate if two factor authentication is not enabled, or if it is configured to extract the user name from the certificate.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 425621]

• Strong Encryption Support in Kerberos KCD

  AAA-TM now supports the aes256-sha1 and aes128-sha1 strong encryption methods for Kerberos KCD. Previously, when KCD was configured to use delegated user credentials, AAA used the relatively weak RC4-HMAC encryption algorithm to encrypt the timestamp when sending a ticket-granting request to the Kerberos server. If the system administrator had restricted use of weak encryption algorithms on the Kerberos server, the Kerberos server would respond with an error instead of the requested ticket, causing KCD to fail. AAA now uses aes256-sha1 to encrypt timestamps for delegated user credentials.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 427766]

• When sending SAML Authentication request to external identity provider, the NetScaler ADC now offers an option to send the thumbprint of the certificate that was used to sign the message instead of sending the complete certificate. When the "sendThumbprint" option in SAML action is set to ON, the ADC allows putting the thumbprint in SAML auth request instead of the full X509 certificate. The "sendThumbprint" option is off by default.
  [From Build 54.9] [# 505673]

• SHA256 Signature and Digest Algorithms Support

  AAA now supports encrypted SAML assertions. The NetScaler implementation of SAML allows signing certificates of less than 2048 bits, but displays a warning message. It also supports the SHA256 hash algorithm for signatures and digests. Citrix recommends that all signing certificates be of at least 2048 bits, and that you use SHA256 as SHA-1 is no longer considered secure.
  [From Build 56.22] [# 440382, 457134]

AAA-TM, Responder

• Using a Responder HTML Response Page to provide Customized Error Responses

  You can use the Citrix NetScaler Responder feature to create custom error responses when a user attempts to authenticate with AAA-TM and authentication fails. The Responder feature is flexible; you can create as many error responses as you wish, and respond to as many different error conditions. For example, if your users log on to different authentication servers in different geographic areas, you can customize responses to each region. A user in the United States can receive an error message that is appropriate to his or her authentication server, and be directed to a customer service telephone number in the United States. A user in Japan can receive the same for his or her different authentication server and customer service telephone number.

  Briefly, to create a Responder configuration for this scenario, first create each error message and place that error message on a web server. The web server should not be located on the same physical server as the authentication server, and preferably not on the same subnet. If you have multiple regional data centers that host separate authentication servers, it is advisable to locate each error response in a different data center than hosts the authentication server that it is used for, so that local power outages or Internet connectivity problems do not affect the web server that hosts the error messages. Then, on the ADC, do the following steps:

  1) Create one load balancing virtual server for each error message.

  2) Create a policy for each error message that selects the requests that should receive this error message if authentication fails, and bind each policy to the appropriate load balancing virtual server.

  3) Create a responder action for each error message that contains an HTTP 307 Redirect that points to the URL of the customized error message.

  4) Create a responder policy for each error message that selects connections that should receive that error message, and bind that policy to the appropriate responder actions. You must craft a rule for the responder policy that selects connections that meet the appropriate criteria. For example, if you want connections that originate in the USA and that fail authentication to receive this error message, the rule could identify the region by source IP, and the authentication failure by error message.

  5) Bind each responder policy to the correct virtual server, as shown below.

  > bind lb vserver <vServerName> -policyName <policyName> -priority 1 -gotoPriorityExpression END

  For detailed instructions on how to set up a responder configuration of this type by using the command line, see the following article on the Citrix Customer Support web site:

AppFlow

• The process of collecting the load time and render time of web pages has been simplified by including the clientSideMeasurements parameter as part of the add appflow action command.

  On the command line interface, enable this option by running the following command:

  > add appflow action <name> -clientSideMeasurements ENABLED

• Indication for End of Transaction

  A transaction flag now indicates, to external collectors, whether the transaction was successfully completed or was aborted.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 252000]

• NetScaler ADC now exports AppFlow records to a set of collectors if the transaction responses are served from the NetScaler cache.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 423567]

• NetScaler ADC now supports the session reliability feature, so that sessions that are monitored by the ADC for ICA traffic can seamlessly reconnect even after a network disruption. This feature keeps sessions active even if network connectivity is interrupted, and to indicate that connectivity is lost, the user's device display freezes and the cursor changes to a spinning hourglass until connectivity resumes. The user can resume interacting with the application once the network connection is restored.

  Note: Make sure to enable the session reliability feature on XenApp or XenDesktop for NetScaler ADC to support this feature.

Cisco RISE Integration

• Configuring RISE with NetScaler ADC and Cisco Nexus 7000 Switches.

  You can now use Remote Integrated Service Engine (RISE) technology to integrate a NetScaler ADC and a Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch. This combination offers layered network services, including robust application delivery capabilities that accelerate application performance for all users.

  With a RISE based implementation, the NetScaler functionality is available as a centralized resource that can be leveraged across the application infrastructure supported by the Cisco Nexus 7000 series switch. The key functionalities of the RISE architecture include:

  - Plug and play auto-provisioning. RISE provides a plug and play auto-provisioning feature. When you directly connect the NetScaler ADC to the Cisco Nexus 7000 series switch, auto-discovery commences.

  - Discovery and bootstrapping. The discovery and bootstrap mechanism enables the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch to communicate with the NetScaler ADC by exchanging information to set up a RISE channel, which transmits control and data packets.

  - Health Monitoring. The NetScaler ADC uses its health monitoring feature to track and support server health by sending health probes to verify server responses.

  - Automatic Policy Based Routing (APBR). Automatic Policy Based Routing (APBR) automatically routes the return traffic from the servers to the NetScaler ADC, preserving the client IP addresses. The automatic policy based routes are defined on the Cisco Nexus 7000 series switch. When the return traffic from the server reaches the Cisco Nexus 7000 series switch, the APBR policies defined on the switch route the traffic to the NetScaler ADC, which in turn routes the traffic to the client.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 413833]

Cluster

• A NetScaler cluster can now be configured to run with less than (n/2 + 1) number of nodes online. To do this, while creating a cluster instance, you must set the "quorumType" parameter to none as shown here:

  > add cluster instance <clid> -quorumType None
  [From Build 50.10] [# 407139]

• Layer2 Mode Support in a Cluster

• You can now add a failover interface set (FIS) on the nodes of a NetScaler cluster. On the cluster IP address, specify the ID of the cluster node on which the FIS must be added as follows:

  > add fis <name> -ownerNode <nodeId>

  Note:

  - The FIS name for each cluster node must be unique.

  - A cluster LA channel can be added to a FIS. You must make sure that the cluster LA channel has a local interface as a member interface.

• Traffic domains are now supported on a NetScaler cluster.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 415065]

• MPTCP is now supported on a NetScaler cluster.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 423654]

• Net profiles are now supported on a NetScaler cluster. You can bind spotted IP addresses to a net profile which can then be bound to spotted load balancing virtual server or service (defined using a node group) with the following recommendations:

  - If the "strict" parameter of the node group is "Yes", the net profile must contain a minimum of one IP address from each node of the node group member.

  - If the "strict" parameter of the node group is "No", the net profile must include at least one IP address from each of the cluster nodes.

  - If the above recommendations are not followed, the net profile configurations will not be honored and the USIP/USNIP settings will be used.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 416827]

• GSLB support in a Cluster

  Global server load balancing can now be configured on a NetScaler cluster. To do this, you must log on to the cluster IP address to define the GSLB entities and then bind these entities to a a single member cluster node group.

  For detailed information, see http://support.citrix.com/proddocs/topic/ns-system-10-5-map/ns-cluster-gslb-con.html.
  [From Build 52.11] [# 326601]

• From NetScaler 10.5 Build 52.11, the cluster feature is licensed with the Platinum and Enterprise licenses. In earlier releases, the cluster feature was licensed by a separate cluster license file.

  Note:

  - If you have configured a cluster in an earlier build, the cluster will work with the separate cluster license file. No changes are required.

  - When you configure a new cluster in Build 52.11 and then downgrade to an earlier build, the cluster will not work as it now expects the separate cluster license file.

Compression

• Specifying a Vary Header Value

  When using HTTP compression, you can explicitly specify a "vary" header value for compressed responses. Prior to this enhancement, the vary header was implied to be "Accept-Encoding, User-Agent".

  To specify the customized vary header globally:

  > set cmp parameter -addVaryHeader ENABLED -varyHeaderValue <string>

  To specify the customized vary header for a specific compression action:

  > add cmp action <name> <cmpType> -addVaryHeader ENABLED -varyHeaderValue <string>

Configuration Utility

• The NetScaler graphical user interface (GUI) has been enhanced to provide a better user interaction experience. It now provides you with a workflow-based experience, which guides you through the entire configuration. The configuration settings have been classified as basic and advanced for some features. The NetScaler ADC configuration utility and NetScaler Gateway configuration utility has also been reimplemented in HTML. As a result of these enhancements, the GUI does not display pop-up dialog boxes for most features and you no longer need Java Runtime Environment (JRE) to access these features through the GUI.

• Distinguish between Commands Executed from Different NetScaler Interfaces

  The NetScaler now keeps track of the interfaces through which operations are executed. You can view this information in syslogs (in the NetScaler GUI, navigate to Configuration > System > Auditing > Audit Messages > Syslog messages) or in the ns.log (located at the /var/log/ directory) file.

  For example, operations that are performed through the API are flagged as "API CMD_EXECUTED".

Content Accelerator

• Content accelerator is a NetScaler feature that you can use in a Citrix ByteMobile T1100 deployment, to store data on a Citrix ByteMobile T2100 appliance. This saves bandwidth and provides faster response times, because the NetScaler does not have to connect to the server for repeated requests of the same data.

Content Switching

• Multiple Port Content Switching Support for SSL_TCP Virtual Servers

  You can now configure the NetScaler ADC so that SSL_TCP content switching virtual servers listen on multiple ports without having to configure separate virtual servers. Instead of configuring multiple virtual servers with the same IP address and different ports, you can now configure one IP address and specify the port as * . As a result, the configuration size is also reduced.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 450367]

• Content Switching Support for Diameter

  The NetScaler ADC now supports content switching for the Diameter protocol. A number of expressions have been added, and you can use them to examine the header and the attribute-value pairs (AVPs) in a Diameter packet. On the basis of that information, you can forward the request to the selected load balancing virtual server.

• When you create a content switching virtual server, NetScaler now supports using DNS TCP as the protocol used by the virtual server.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 365650]

• Multiple Port Content Switching Support for HTTP and SSL Virtual Servers

  You can now configure the NetScaler ADC so that HTTP and SSL content switching virtual servers listen on multiple ports without having to configure separate virtual servers. This feature is especially useful if you want to base a content switching decision on a part of the URL and other L7 parameters. Instead of configuring multiple virtual servers with the same IP address and different ports, you can now configure one IP address and specify the port as *. As a result, the configuration size is also reduced.

DNS

• NAPTR DNS Record

  NetScaler ADC supports DNS NAPTR (Naming Address Pointer) record type. NAPTR records are generic DNS record type, but are commonly used in internet telephony for service discovery. They therefore enable clients to discover which server the request should go to for a particular service and which protocol to use to connect to the server.

  NetScaler ADCs support NAPTR in two modes: ADNS mode and proxy mode. You can create a NAPTR record using both, command line interface and the NetScaler Configuration Utility.

  [From Build 50.10] [# 413773]

• AA bit set for response from NetScaler Cache

  In the previous releases, for NODATA responses with AA bit, NetScaler would ignore AA bit (authoritative bit) while caching. For such DNS queries NetScaler would reply with NODATA response from cache without setting the AA bit. The behavior has been enhanced with current release. NetScaler will respond with the AA bit for negative cached responses just as it does for positive cache responses.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 285009]

• Enabling or Disabling the Recursion Available Flag

  A new parameter -RecursionAvailabe (YES|NO) is introduced in load balancing virtual server (for DNS and DNS_TCP types). The option by default has a value of NO. When you use the load balancing virtual server to load balance recursive resolvers, you can turn this option to YES. This will cause NetScaler to respond with RA bit set on all responses.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 403114, 248936, 269857, 388338]

• CNAME Record Caching

  NetScaler ADC when deployed in a proxy mode does not always send the query for an address record to the back-end server. This happens when for an answer to a query for an address record, a partial CNAME chain is present in the cache. Under few conditions, ADC caches the partial CNAME record and serves the query from the cache.

DataStream

• Support for Database Specific Load Balancing for MySQL

  Database specific load balancing is now supported for MySQL databases. If a database is available on multiple servers but is online on only some of these servers, the client request is forwarded to the server on which the database is online. Enable the DBSLB option when you create a load balancing virtual server. To store the database list on the NetScaler ADC, while creating a MYSQL-ECV monitor, enable storeDB.

  Currently AAA supports Kerberos authentication only with Datastream Windows Authentication. AAA does not support fallback to NTLM if Kerberos authentication fails.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 382693]

• Support for Transparent Deployment Mode in MySQL

  You can now configure the NetScaler ADC to operate transparently between MySQL clients and servers, and to only log or analyze details of all client-server transactions. Transparent mode is designed so that the ADC only forwards MySQL requests to the server, and then relays the server's responses to the clients. As the requests and responses pass through the ADC, the ADC logs information gathered from them, as specified by the audit logging or AppFlow configuration, or collects statistics, as specified by the Action Analytics configuration. You do not have to add database users to the ADC.

Integrated Caching

• Increased Metadata Cache Capacity

  The number of cached objects that the cache memory can store has now been increased.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 417677]

• Cache Object Persistence in a High Availability Setup

  When integrated caching is used in a high availability setup, in addition to storing the cached objects on the primary appliance, the objects are also stored on the secondary appliance. This reduces bandwidth usage as cached objects are not lost during failover and the request can then be served directly from the cache of the secondary appliance.

  To enable this functionality globally, execute the following command:

  > set cache parameter -enableHaObjPersist Yes

  To enable this functionality on a specific content group, execute the following command:

  > set cache contentGroup <name> -persistHA Yes

Load Balancing

• Monitors for XenMobile Device Manger (XDM) and XenMobile Device Connector (XNC)

  NetScaler allows a user to create monitors to check the status of the XenMobile Device Manager (XDM) and XenMobile NetScaler Connector (XNC) servers. The citrix-xdm monitor is used to monitor the XDM server while the citrix-xnc-ecv monitor is used to monitor the XNC server. You can add these monitors by using the add lb monitor command from the command-line interface or by using the GUI.

  * The XDM monitor uses the username, password, and site path strings to probe the XDM server.

  * The XNC monitor uses the username, password, send, and recv strings to probe the XNC monitor.

NetScaler Gateway

• Tranferring ICA Proxy Sessions Between Devices

  If you configure a SmartAccess virtual server, when users log on from multiple devices, you can transfer the ICA Proxy session to another device and restrict users to one Universal license. For example, if users log on by using Citrix Receiver on their computer and then log on again from a mobile device, this consumes two NetScaler Gateway Universal licenses and creates two sessions for one user. You can prevent the two sessions by enabling the setting ICA Proxy Session Migration on the virtual server. When you enable this setting, the user session transfers to the new device and uses one Universal license.

  To enable session transfer

  1. In the configuration utility, on the Configuration tab, in the navigation pane, expand NetScaler Gateway and then click Virtual Servers.

  2. In the details pane, select a SmartAccess virtual server and then click Open.

  3. Select ICA Proxy Session Migration and then click OK.

  [From Build 50.10] [# 435000]

• VMAC Based Traffic Domains

  You can now associate a traffic domain with a VMAC address instead of with VLANs. The NetScaler ADC then sends the traffic domain's VMAC address in all responses to ARP queries for network entities in that domain. As a result, the ADC can segregate subsequent incoming traffic for different traffic domains on the basis of the destination MAC address. The NetScaler ADC identifies traffic for a traffic domain if it is destined to the same VMAC address that is associated with the traffic domain.

• Support for Inter Traffic Domain Entity Bindings

  You can now bind services in one traffic domain to a virtual server in another traffic domain. All the services to be bound to a virtual server in a different traffic domain must reside in the same traffic domain.

  There is no command or parameter introduced for this support. You configure this support by using the existing bind lb vserver command or the related configuration utility procedure. This capability can facilitate interaction between different traffic domains. In an enterprise, servers can be grouped in different traffic domains. Virtual servers are created in a traffic domain that faces the internet. A virtual server from this traffic domain can be configured to load balance servers in another traffic domain. This virtual server receives connection requests from the Internet to be forwarded to the bound servers.

• A parameter Source IP Persistency has been introduced in RNAT rules and Netprofiles:

  Source IP Persistency for RNAT Sessions

  The source IP persistency of a RNAT rule enables the NetScaler ADC to use the same NAT IP address for all RNAT sessions initiated from a particular server.

  Source IP Persistency for NetProfiles

  The source IP persistency of a netprofile associated with a virtual server or service enables the NetScaler ADC to use the same address, specified in the net profile, for all sessions initiated from a particular client.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 437359]

• IPv6 Forwarding Session Rules

  Now, you can create forwarding session rules for IPv6 traffic. By default, the NetScaler appliance does not create session entries for traffic that it only forwards (L3 mode). For a case in which a client request that the appliance forwards to a server results in a response that has to return by the same path, you can create a forwarding-session rule. A forwarding-session rule creates forwardingsession entries for traffic that originates from or is destined for a particular network and is forwarded by the NetScaler appliance.

  When configuring an IPv6 forwarding-session rule, you can specify either an IPv6 prefix or an ACL6 as the condition for identifying IPv6 traffic for which the forwarding-session entry to be created:

  - Using an IPv6 prefix . When you specify an IPv6 prefix, the appliance creates forwarding sessions for those IPv6 traffic that are sourced from networks that matches the IPv6 prefix.

  - Using an ACL6 rule . When you use an ACL6 rule, the appliance creates forwarding sessions for those IPv6 traffic that match the conditions specified in the ACL6 rule.

  Note: When the appliance is configured as a high availability node, Connection Failover for synchronizing IPv6 forwarding session entries with the secondary node is not supported.

  Using LLDP, the NetScaler ADC transmits and receives information in the form of LLDP messages known as LLDP packet data units (LLDPDUs). An LLDPDU is a sequence of type, length, value (TLV) information elements. Each TLV holds a specific type of information about the device that transmits the LLDPDU. The NetScaler ADC sends the following TLVs in each LLDPDU:

  * Chassis ID

  * Port ID

  * Time-to-live value

  * System name

  * System description

  * Port description

  * System capabilities

  * Management address

  * Port VLAN ID

  * Link aggregation

  Note: You cannot specify the TLVs to be sent in LLDP messages.

• Support for VXLANs

  Now the NetScaler ADC supports Virtual eXtensiable Local Area Network (VXLANs). A VXLAN is an overlay solution that creates layer 2 overlay networks over layer 3 infrastructure by encapsulating Layer-2 frames in UDP packets. Each VXLAN is identified by a unique 24-bit identifier called the VXLAN Network Identifier (VNI). Only network devices within the same VXLAN can communicate with each other.

• ZebOS API Access

  With a new configuration object, router DynamicRouting, you can use NITRO APIs to configure dynamic routing protocols on a NetScaler appliance.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 229714, 222015, 406589]

• Configuring Link Redundancy by using LACP channels

  Link Redundancy by using LACP channels enables the NetScaler appliance to logically create sub channels from a LACP channel where one of the sub channel is active and the remaining sub channels stay in standby mode. If the active sub channel fails or does not meet a minimum threshold throughput, one of the standby sub channel takes over and becomes active.

  The NetScaler appliance forms a sub channels from links that are part of the LACP channel and are connected to a particular device. For example, for a LACP channel with four interfaces on a NetScaler appliance, where two of the interface is connected to device A, and the other two interfaces are connected to device B, then the NetScaler appliance logically creates two sub channels, one sub channel with two links to device A, and the other sub channel with the remaining two links to device B.

  The lrMinThroughput parameter is introduced for configuring link redundancy for a LACP channel. This parameter specifies the minimum throughput threshold to be met by the active sub channel of a LACP channel. When the throughput of the active channel falls below the lrMinThroughput , link failover occurs and one of the standby sub channels becomes active.

  For example, set channel la/1 -lrMinThroughput 2000

  Link redundancy for a LACP channel is disabled, which is also the default setting, when you set the lrMinThroughput parameter of the LACP channel to zero or when you unset this parameter.

  Note: In an HA configuration, if you want to configure throughput (throughput parameter) based HA failover and link redundancy ( lrMinThroughput parameter) on a LACP channel, you must set a lesser or equal value to the throughput parameter as compared to the lrMinThroughput parameter.

  For example, set channel la/1 throughput 2000 -lrMinThroughput 2000

  HA failover does not occur if any of the sub channels meets the lrMinThroughput parameter value even when the total throughput of the LACP channel does not meet the throughput parameter value.

  HA failover occurs only when the entire sub channels of the LACP channel does not meet the lrMinThroughput parameter value and the total throughput of the LACP channel does not meet the throughput parameter value.

  [From Build 50.10] [# 346763]

• Netprofile Support for Link Load Balancing Configurations

  You can now associate a netprofile with a link load balancing configuration. The NetScaler ADC then uses one of the IP addresses in the netprofile as the source address for outbound traffic related to the link load balancing configuration.

  A netprofile can include a NetScaler owned IP address or an IP set, which is a set of NetScaler owned IP addresses. You can associate a netprofile with link load balancing virtual servers as well as with the bound services. A netprofile associated with a link load balancing virtual server always take precedence over netprofiles associated with the bound services.

Policies

• Variable Support for Policies

  Policy variables are named objects that can hold one or more values that can be set and modified at runtime. The concept of variables is essentially the same as in programming languages. Variable values can be of two types:

  - ulong (a 64-bit unsigned integer, with values from 0 to 2^64-1)

  - text (a sequence of bytes with a configured maximum length).

  Additionally, there are two variable types:

  - Singletons variables hold one ulong or text value.

  - Maps hold one or more entries, each entry having a text key and a ulong or text value. The key can be used to find the value. In a map, more than one map entry may have the same value, but each map entry must have a different key.

  [From Build 50.10] [# 368447]

Responder

• The Responder feature now supports the Diameter protocol.

  A number of NetScaler expressions have been added that enable the user to examine the header and the attribute-value pairs (AVPs) in a diameter packet. These expressions enable the user to look up AVPs by index, ID, or name, examine the information in the AVP, and send a response based on that information.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 318387]

• Embedded Expressions in Responder Responses

  You can now add Netscaler expressions with default syntax to HTML pages that are used with responder actions of the respondWithHtmlpage type. Any expression that is supported for use in a respondWith response can be used in a respondWithHTMLPage response. To embed expressions in HTML pages simply surround the expressions with "${" and "}". This functionality enables you to include information about the request that generated the Responder action in the response.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 423928]

Rewrite

• The Rewrite feature now supports the Diameter protocol.

  A number of NetScaler expressions have been added that enable the user to examine the header and the attribute-value pairs (AVPs) in a diameter packet. These expressions enable the user to look up AVPs by index, ID, or name, examine the information in the AVP, and replace/insert/delete AVPs if necessary.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 318382]

SSL

• Sending an SSLv2 Compliant Client Hello Message

  As part of the SSL handshake with the server, the NetScaler appliance now sends a Client Hello message based on the version (for example SSLv3 or TLS1.0) that is configured on the appliance. Earlier, it sent an SSLv2 compliant Client Hello message to the server.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 378806, 204465, 406907]

• Importing SSL Resources from Remote Hosts

  The NetScaler appliance now supports importing SSL resources, such as certificates, private keys, CRLs, and DH keys, from remote hosts even if FTP access to these hosts is not available. This is especially helpful in environments where shell access to the remote host is restricted.

• SSL Renegotiation

  SSL renegotiation is now blocked by default. In earlier releases, the default setting was to allow SSL renegotiation.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 481577]

• SSL Certificate Chain

  As part of the SSL handshake, when a client requests a certificate, the NetScaler ADC presents a certificate and the chain of issuer certificates that are present on the ADC. An administrator can view the certificate chain for the certificates present on the ADC and install any missing certificates.

  For more information, see http://support.citrix.com/proddocs/topic/netscaler-traffic-management-10-5-map/ns-ssl-display-cert-chain-tsk.html
  [From Build 50.10] [# 437610]

• Support for Common Name Check during Server Authentication

  In end-to-end encryption with server authentication enabled, you can include a common name in the configuration of an SSL service or service group. The name that you specify is compared to the common name in the server certificate during an SSL handshake. If the two names match, the handshake is successful. This configuration is especially useful if there are, for example, two servers behind a firewall and one of the servers spoofs the identity of the other. If the common name is not checked, a certificate presented by either server is accepted if the IP address matches.

  [From Build 50.10] [# 381821, 332628]

• Support for ECDHE Ciphers

  The Citrix NetScaler MPX 11515/11520/11530/11540/11542 appliances and the VPX virtual appliance now support the ECDHE cipher group. On the SDX 11515/11520/11530/11540/11542 appliances, the cipher group is supported only if an SSL chip is assigned to a VPX instance. This group contains the following ciphers:

  - TLS1-ECDHE-RSA-RC4-SHA

  - TLS1-ECDHE-RSA-DES-CBC3-SHA

  - TLS1-ECDHE-RSA-AES128-SHA

  - TLS1-ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA

  Because of its smaller key size, Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) is especially useful in a mobile (wireless) environment and in an interactive voice response environment, where every millisecond is important. Smaller key sizes result in power, memory, bandwidth, and computational cost savings.

  The following ECC curves are supported:

  - P_256

  - P_384

  - P_224

  - P_521

  By default all four curves are bound to an SSL virtual server.

  A chip is marked disabled after the third failed reinitialization attempt.
  [From Build 50.10] [# 376153]

• Creating an SSL Profile

  You can use an SSL profile to specify how a NetScaler appliance processes SSL traffic. The profile is a collection of SSL parameter settings for SSL entities, such as virtual servers, services, and service groups, and offers ease of configuration and flexibility. Previously, you could specify only one set of global parameters. Now, you can create multiple sets (profiles) of global parameters and assign different sets to different SSL entities. SSL profiles are classified into two categories:

  -Front end profiles, containing parameters applicable to the front-end entity. That is, they apply to the entity that receives requests from a client. For example, an SSL virtual server.

  -Backend profiles, containing parameters applicable to the back-end entity. That is, they apply to the entity that sends client requests to a server. For example, an SSL service.

  [From Build 57.7] [# 424463, 481970]

• Stricter Control on Client Certificate Validation

  You can configure the SSL virtual server to accept only client certificates that are signed by a CA certificate bound to the virtual server. To do so, enable the ClientAuthUseBoundCAChain setting in the SSL profile bound to the virtual server.
  [From Build 57.7] [# 533241]

• Support for TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV signaling cipher suite value

  The NetScaler appliance now supports the TLS_FALLBACK_SCSV signaling cipher suite value. The presence of this SCSV extension in the Client Hello indicates that the client is retrying to connect to the server by using a lower SSL version, after its previous attempt to communicate with a higher version failed. Therefore, if the server finds this extension in Client Hello and also finds that the client is proposing a version that is lower than the maximum version supported by the server, it is a likely indication of a "man in the middle attack." The server drops these handshakes.
  [From Build 57.7] [# 509666]

• Support for ECDHE Ciphers at the Back End

  The NetScaler appliance now supports the following ECDHE ciphers at the backend:

• Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN)

  The NetScaler appliance now supports ECN, which sends notification of network congestion state to the sender and takes corrective measures for data congestion or data corruption. When ECN is enabled, the NetScaler automatically differentiates between corruption loss and congestion loss. The NetScaler implementation of ECN is RFC 3168 compliant.

  ECN must be enabled on the TCP profile to which you want it to apply.

• SPDY v3 Support

  The NetScaler appliance now supports SPDY v3 with Application Layer Protocol Negotiation (ALPN).
  [From Build 50.10] [# 329669]

• NetScaler support for D-SACK AND F-RTO

  The NetScaler appliance can now detect spurious re-transmissions by using TCP duplicate selective acknowledgement (D-SACK) and Forward RTO-Recovery (F-RTO). In case of spurious re-transmissions, the congestion control configurations are reverted to their original state. The NetScaler implementation of D-SACK is RFC 2883 compliant and F-RTO is RFC 5682 compliant.

  D-SACK and F-RTO must be enabled on the TCP profile to which you want it to apply.

• When AAA is configured to authenticate users to a Microsoft Sharepoint 2013 server by using NTLM, the user might be prompted to retype his or her credentials even though the user entered those credentials correctly. After the user retypes the credentials, he or she is logged on successfully. The issue is that initially the NetScaler ADC sends an incorrect domain to Sharepoint.
  [From Build 52.11] [# 476885]

• If, after successful completion of the single factor authentication, the user attempts to access a resource that requires a higher level (level 2) authentication, in some load balancing topologies, the NetScaler ADC might,respond with a generic 404 message. With this fix, if the initial user authentication used single factor authentication, the ADC sends a logon page to prompt the user to again provide credentials for level 2 authentication.
  [From Build 53.9] [# 501883]

• The NetScaler ADC does not handle an authentication request if the incoming base64 decoded kerberos ticket is more than 10 kilobytes. This fix increases the buffer-size limit to accommodate tickets of up to 65 kilobytes.
  [From Build 53.9] [# 505809, 507692]

• In the NetScaler configuration utility, filtering the active AAA sessions does not work if the filtering is based on Intranet IP addresses. All active AAA sessions are shown, regardless of IP address. With this fix, the configuration utility successfully displays only the AAA sessions active at the IP addresses that you specify.
  [From Build 53.9] [# 446755, 468475]

• The NetScaler SAMLIDP now offers 16 SAML attributes. Four options are available for configuring each of these attributes to include attribute name, attribute value, attribute friendly name, and attribute URI specification. You can use the Citrix default syntax expressions to set the attribute values.
  [From Build 53.9] [# 460680, 504703]

• As part of enhancement for Office365 integration, the NetScaler SAML IDP now sends Destination, SubjectConfirmationData, InResponseTo, and a Conditions section with an Audience field in the SAML Response.
  [From Build 53.9] [# 505951]

• The NetScaler ADC now offers the ability to configure 16 attributes in an LDAP action. These attributes are sent to the Active Directory (AD) during a user search. These values are extracted and stored. During the user session, they can be invoked/referenced in PI expressions.
  [From Build 53.9] [# 301241]

• The NetScaler AAA SAML service provider (SP) does not send a SAML logout message to the SAML identity provider (IdP), so users who log onto SAML are unable to log off.
  [From Build 53.9] [# 501565]

• If an authentication profile has a space in its name, the NetScaler parser only takes the first part of the string up to the space character as the name of the profile. The NetScaler ADC may fail if during user authentication it comes across another entity that matches this partial string. With this fix, we now use URLencoding for the profile name to accurately process special characters.
  [From Build 54.9] [# 512078]

• The NetScaler Gateway and AAA-TM now support advanced expressions in SSO (single sign-on). The attribute values that are extracted as part of the authentication "http.req.user.attribute(1..16)" can now be used for setting the username and password credentials. For more information, see http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX200261
  [From Build 54.9] [# 452352, 482255, 495610]

• The NetScaler fails to parse incoming assertions if it finds a duplicate Status code tag. As per SAML specification, unlike other tags, the StatusCode tag can come nested within itself. With this fix, the nested StatusCode tags are allowed in the assertion during SAML Authentication.
  [From Build 54.9] [# 523158]

• If a user name or password consists of UTF8 characters, basic authentication fails on the NetScaler ADC. With this fix, the ADC now passes the encoding type in the 401 challenge so that the incoming data is accurately encoded.
  [From Build 54.9] [# 507386]

• When a user attempts to use the two form factor method to log on to AAA-TM, the NetScaler ADC might become unresponsive.
  [From Build 55.8] [# 502710, 522858]

  [From Build 59.13] [# 492626]

• If an organization has users and services in multiple domains, then when doing Kerberos Constrained Delegation, the NetScaler appliance might pick incorrect ticket when accessed in a particular order. This can result in users not being able to access the sites.
  [From Build 59.13] [# 575572, 589222]

• When a Kerberos ticket in a file (the AAA-TM system stores kerberos TGT in files) has expired, the NetScaler appliance updates the time offset in the request to KDC (Key Distribution Centre). This might cause Kerberos single sign-on to fail. You can remove the cached ticket files from the appliance.

  [From Build 60.7] [# 577778, 595104, 595185]

• When the NetScaler appliance is configured as SAML Service Provider (SP), the SAML Identity Provider (IdP) dishonors a logout request that is performed on the traffic management virtual server (load balancing or content switching) that uses a AAA-TM traffic policy.

  This happens because the NetScaler SP sends to the SAML IdP a SAML logoutRequest that contains "Conditions" XML tag.

• When IBM Tivoli IdP is used for SAML authentication with NetScaler appliance as the service provider, there could be an issue with SAML assertion verification.
  [From Build 61.11] [# 540396]

• When doing forms based SSO, if the backend server sets a cookie with the login form, NetScaler does not send those cookies to the client. This behavior was observed after a successful forms SSO attempt. This applies to forms based SSO access in both Gateway and AAA-TM products.
  [From Build 62.9] [# 624165]

• When using AAA-TM on a plain HTTP virtual server with no endpoint features enabled, the NetScaler appliance might acknowledge less data than the client has sent. That might cause some elements of pages to load incompletely, or time out.
  [From Build 62.9] [# 615885]

• If the AAA virtual server is configured to an non-ActiveDirectory LDAP server, and an invalid password is used to logon, the NetScaler appliance becomes unresponsive.

Acceleration

• The classic-policy expression used by the default acceleration policy fails to identify an Internet Explorer browser whose signature does not comply with the IE user-agent string standards.
  [From Build 58.11] [# 535130]

Action Analytics

• The NetScaler crashes due to an issue in hash calculation and comparison of the action analytics records. The crash is observed when the NetScaler receives URLs that differ only in case.

  Examples:

  http://10.217.6.239/TesT/

  http://10.217.6.239/TEST/

  http://10.217.6.239/TEsT/

  http://10.217.6.239/TeST/

  Note post fix:

  Stream analytics record creation will be case sensitive. For example, WWW.GOOGLE.COM and www.google.com will result in two seperate records.

  If this is not desired, stream selector results should be converted to one case. Example:

  add stream selector sel1 HTTP.REQ.hostname.to_lower
  [From Build 53.9] [# 406457]

• A global flag that tracks stream sessions when the ICMP traffic processing begins is not initiated properly.

  [From Build 53.9] [# 423150]

• If a NetScaler ADC receives a request for an object that it cached before the application firewall configuration was modified to add any advanced security check protection, the ADC responds with HTTP Error 503 for subsequent requests to access this cached object, because the object does not contain the expected application firewall metadata. With this fix, the existing cached objects without the required metadata are considered stale and are flushed. The request is served from the origin server and the cache is updated with refreshed data.
  [From Build 53.9] [# 473322, 466491]

• If a user-created signature has an uppercase character in the name, the application firewall profile bound to the signature is not saved in the configuration during an upgrade from a release 10.1 build to a release 10.5 build. If a user creates a signature name with uppercase characters, release 10.1 stores it that way. But in release 10.5, the signature name is converted to a lowercase string in the database. As a result of the database mismatch, the command to add the application firewall profile fails during an upgrade to a release 10.5 build.
  [From Build 54.9] [# 511657, 512129]

• During upgrade from release 10 to 10.1, the names of the application firewall learning database files with uppercase or mixed case characters get converted to all lowercase characters. This results in two sets of database files and breaks the learned rule functionality. With this fix, learning data can be successfully retrieved after upgrade for profiles with names in mixed case characters.
  [From Build 54.9] [# 446134, 483207]

• If the NetScaler application firewall receives a request with percent-encoded space character, such as "login%20name" for a form field login name, the deployed learned rule containing the encoded character (%20) fails to work as relaxation rule. The security check violation is still triggered. Note that the browser converts the space to a "+" character. For such a request, the corresponding learned rule with "login+name" for "login name" works as expected when deployed as a startURL relaxation rule.
  [From Build 54.9] [# 315183]

• The NetScaler ADC might display an error message when you bind a classic application firewall policy to a load balancing virtual server or to the global bind point, because classic application firewall policies do not support the "gotopriorityexpression" and "invoke" properties. With this fix, properties that are not supported for application firewall policies are no longer included in the bind command. The binding is now successful, and you can see the bound entities.

• The naming convention for application firewall import objects has changed from 10.1 build to 10.5 build. If a user creates a signature name with uppercase or mixed case characters, release 10.1 stores it that way. But in release 10.5, the signature name is converted to a lowercase string in the database. As a result of the database mismatch, these signatures become unusable after the 10.1 build to a 10.5 build upgrade. With this fix, the configuration is migrated accurately during the upgrade.

The application firewall memory leak is now fixed, and the fix resolves the interoperability issue with the cache module.
  [From Build 57.7] [# 549466]

• The application firewall recommended learned rules for the Start URL security check do not contain the ^ in the beginning and the $ at the end of the URL.
  [From Build 58.11] [# 556847]

• When any form protection check is enabled and the default request content-type parameter of the application firewall profile is not configured, an incoming request without a content-type header is treated as a form, even if it is not a form. The transfer-encoding header gets deleted, and a content-length header gets added, but the request is forwarded to the server as a chunked request. The server is unable to process the chunked data and determines it to be a bad request. With this fix, the form analysis is carried out only when "multipart/form-data", or "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" content type is either specified in the request or set as the default request content type in the profile that is applied when the content-type is not specified in the request.
  [From Build 58.11] [# 559348]

• If a server sends a large value for the viewstate attribute in its HTML response, this value might get truncated during application firewall processing and display an error: "view state MAC fail".
  [From Build 58.11] [# 539487, 526029, 547104]

• When cookie consistency check is deployed in the proxing mode, the application firewall does not expire the cookies as expected. This occurs when the server sends the Set-cookie header without the domain information. Protected resources are vulnerable to access through reuse of these cookies after the session has expired.
  [From Build 58.11] [# 548577]

• During binding a signature to an application firewall profile, the NetScaler appliance might fail when it is under memory pressure.
  [From Build 58.11] [# 559060]

• If a large number of long standing sessions expire and are freed during application firewall processing, a tight-loop condition might occur, causing the NetScaler appliance to fail.

• In the RDX Graphical User Interface (GUI), the deploy or skip operation might not work for application-firewall recommended learned rules that contain non-printable characters.
  [From Build 58.11] [# 551621, 549232]

• The application firewall allows you to configure Credit Card security check by offering a set of check boxes to select the credit card(s) to protect. In the 10.5 release, the configuration utility offers this option when you navigate to the profile's relaxation rule section and select the credit card entry in the displayed table. This functionality is missing in the 58.11 build. With this fix, the option to configure Protected Credit cards has been relocated. From build 59.x onwards, you can navigate to the Advanced Settings pane of the target profile and double click Credit Card, or select the row and click Action Settings to display the Protected Credit Card check boxes .
  [From Build 59.13] [# 586016]

• During an application firewall security check inspection, a compressed response from the server might trigger a violation if the XML format check is enabled. With this fix, the Accept-Encoding request header is removed when the XML protections are enabled. If content compression is enabled on the server, the XML check inspection is bypassed when the server sends a compressed response.
  [From Build 59.13] [# 580273]

• When an HTTPS virtual server is processing the traffic, the violation logs that the application firewall generates for a blocked malformed request might show the wrong IP address, and the transaction ID might be shown as zero.
  [From Build 59.13] [# 500933]

• An attempt to make a copy of the application firewall default signature object might fail in some appliances if there is insufficient space in the /tmp (on MFS, ram disk) folder. With this fix, the intermediary files that are created during the import operation to make a copy of the default signature object are now written in the /var/tmp (on HDD/SSD) that has more space.
  [From Build 59.13] [# 583298]

• In the configuration utility (GUI), selecting the "Remove All Learned Data" action in the application firewall Learned Rules section might not remove the learned data for some of the security checks for the profile.
  [From Build 59.13] [# 549255]

• When a user attempts to upload a file to a server that is protected by the application firewall, the file upload fails. The underlying cause is that the application firewall included an invalid character in the MIME boundary when encoding the file.
  [From Build 59.13] [# 472476, 418036]

• In 10.5 builds, the application firewall does not support white space character in the name of the imported object. After upgrading a 9.3 build to a 10.5 build, an error message might be displayed when removing an imported object which has white space character in the name.

• The Citrix application firewall silently resets the connection when it receives a malformed or invalid request. With this fix, the application firewall logs such events.
  [From Build 59.13] [# 577742]

• During application firewall processing, if the length of the pattern in the signature rule is longer than the payload text string currently being searched for a pattern match, the NetScaler appliance might fail. With this fix, application firewall skips such a rule and moves on to process the next signature rule.
  [From Build 59.13] [# 570830, 528946]

• During operations that require a large amount of memory, the NetScaler application firewall might not be able to allocate memory for active transactions. The NetScaler appliance might fail under such conditions.
  [From Build 59.13] [# 513506, 574322]

• An attempt to make a copy of the application firewall default signature object might fail in some appliances if there is insufficient space in the /tmp (on MFS, ram disk) folder. With this fix, the intermediary files that are created during the import operation to make a copy of the default signature object are now written in the /var/tmp (on HDD/SSD) that has more space.
  [From Build 60.7] [# 583298]

• The NetScaler appliance might fail when the application firewall is processing the cookie header(s) in an HTTP request. This occurs when the cookie transform action is enabled and all other security checks that apply to establishing a user session are disabled.

• If you use the default browser PDF plugin to view an application firewall report, embedded links might be inactive.
  [From Build 61.11] [# 372768]

• Application firewall profiles that are exported and archived from one build cannot be restored to a system running a different build, because changes introduced in the newer releases can lead to compatibility issues. With this fix, the application firewall now logs an error message, in ns.log, if you attempt to restore an archived profile to a different build than the one from which it was exported.
  [From Build 61.11] [# 601064]

• The application firewall might experience a transient low-memory condition during a traffic surge if advanced security check protections (such as Form Field consistency, CSRF, form tagging and so on, which require rewriting the HTML forms in the response) are enabled for the profiles. This might result in a memory leak, and memory allocation failures might occur even after the traffic surge subsides.
  [From Build 61.11] [# 598776, 597952]

• With application firewall enabled, the presence of stale debug printf statements leads to an increase in the latency and CPU usage.
  [From Build 61.11] [# 598829, 621260]

• The application firewall uses a cached PCB pointer to retrieve connection information during asynchronous DHT operation. In a corner case scenario, this stale PCB gets freed which might cause the NetScaler appliance to fail.
  [From Build 61.11] [# 589321, 603432]

• When a new node is added to cluster, the configuration might get pushed to the new node before the imported objects are synced. As a result, the profile configuration might be lost if the profile has signature or other import object bindings. With this fix, a file sync is triggered to pull all the files from the CCO node to all the new nodes of the cluster before the configuration commands are pushed to new node.
  [From Build 61.11] [# 537375, 611422]

• The Skip operation for the application firewall learned rules might take longer than expected.
  [From Build 62.9] [# 547978]

• If learning thresholds for the application firewall security checks are set to a value greater than 1, the configuration utility displays the following error message when you try to access the learned data: "communication error with aslearn."
  [From Build 62.9] [# 622678]

• When you use the NetScaler GUI to perform the Skip operation, the application firewall learned rules might not be deleted. This occurs because NITRO is sending wrong "Location" ("Field") data to the GUI. With this fix, the GUI converts "Field" into "FORMFIELD," and the Skip operation removes the skipped rules, as expected.

• A NetScaler appliance fails under the following set of conditions:

  - The appliance is configured to log for parsing errors in XML responses, and the configuration includes a confidential field. Webform fields can be designated as confidential fields to protect the information that users type into them.

  - The appliance receives a request in which query parameters are set.

  - A parsing error occurs during processing of the XML response.

• The name of a user defined signature object must not contain a hash-mark character (#), but the feedback message lists it as an allowed character.
  [From Build 64.9] [# 648010]

• When an application firewall signature object from an earlier release is imported to the NetScaler appliance using the CLI, it might not display the version of the existing *Default signature object. It might display an older version, even though during the import, the version gets updated to the same version as the version of the existing *Default signature object. However, if the same object is imported using GUI, the version reflects the version of the *Default signature object. This is a display issue and is only observed when CLI is used to import an object.
  [From Build 64.9] [# 614173]

• If a user-created signature name includes a space, the application firewall profile bound to the signature is not saved in the configuration after you upgrade to release 10.5 build 63.8.
  [From Build 64.9] [# 647080]

• A NetScaler AppFirewall appliance might run out of memory, because firewall sessions might not get cleaned up in a high availability environment if sync or propagation is disabled or the software versions running on a pair of nodes do not match. This is due to DHT not being able to clean up entries properly.
  [From Build 64.9] [# 646293, 645547, 658502]

• The application firewall allows configuring default field format parameters. The valid range for the maximum field format length is 1-65535. The GUI as well as CLI currently accepts zero as input even though zero is outside the allowed range.

• If the HTML response page contains a pair of hyphens (--) in the comment tag, the NetScaler appliance might parse the response page incorrectly. This could result in a violation.
  [From Build 64.9] [# 648104]

• The Application firewall signature rule #14990 has an PCRE expression pattern to detect the presence of violation string in Accept-Charset header. This expression is computationally intensive and results in generation of log message "PCRE match limit exceeded with regex...". With this fix, rule #14990 is deprecated and replaced by a new signature rule #999972 which now has an optimized PCRE expression. The new rule #999972 shows the source as snort and the snort ID as 14990.
  [From Build 65.11] [# 669824]

• Executing force sync operation using the nssync -s command from the shell triggers NetScaler appliance reboot and crash. The nsnetsvc crash occurs when the import filename length exceeds MAX_FILE_PATH_LEN.

Cache Redirection

• An invalid HTTP request received on a cache redirection virtual server configured on the NetScaler ADC is sent to the cache server. This results in errors and degraded performance.

  With the fix, invalid HTTP requests are redirected to the origin server instead of the cache server.
  [From Build 53.9] [# 497866, 502366]

• Applying multiple ACL rules causes excessive consumption of CPU cycles. As a result, the NetScaler ADC might become unresponsive.
  [From Build 53.9] [# 502366, 505091]

• The NetScaler ADC fails if the cache redirection virtual server and the httpport parameter point to the same service. For example, the following configuration causes the ADC to fail:

  set ns param -httpport 80

  add cr vserver cr1 http * 80

  set cr vserver cr1 -listenpoliciy "client.ip.src.eq(1.1.1.1)"
  [From Build 55.8] [# 509690]

• In a fully transparent CR deployment if a client sends two HTTP GET requests for the same connection, the first connection to the CACHE is closed when the second GET request is received. This happens because a specific flag is set to open new connection which forwards the second GET request to the cache. Since the first connection for the same 4 tuple is still open, NetScaler sends a reset signal.

  Fix: Do not set the flag to initiate the connection for the second GET request, since the previous connection already exists.
  [From Build 58.11] [# 541395]

• The Cache Redirection configuration is deleted when the NetScaler appliance is rebooted.

• Memory leaks might occur on NetScaler ADCs connected to a CloudBridge Connector tunnel when one of the ADCs sends monitor probes, through the tunnel, to a service that is bound to an HTTP or SSH load balancing virtual server.
  [From Build 54.9] [# 512191, 513775]

• With the L2 mode enabled, if a packet is sent on a PBR based plain IPSEC (not GRE) tunnel, and an ARP broadcast is sent over the same tunnel, the NetScaler ADC fails.
  [From Build 57.7] [# 534625]

• In a CloudBridge Connector tunnel between a NetScaler appliance and the Amazon AWS cloud, Security Associations (SA) lifetime is not negotiated between the CloudBridge Connector endpoints. As a result, multiple SAs are created at both endpoints, causing traffic loss in the tunnel.
  [From Build 57.7] [# 525643, 537896]

• A CloudBridge Connector tunnel configuration between a NetScaler appliance and the Microsoft Azure cloud fails, because Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) is enabled by default on the NetScaler appliance and currently cannot be disabled. PFS must be disabled to configure a CloudBridge Connector tunnel between the appliance and the Microsoft Azure cloud.

• A NetScaler cluster does not respond to cURL HTTP requests from outside the datacenter, because the Path MTU Discovery (PMTUD) mode gets disabled when a cluster is created.
  [From Build 61.11] [# 541223]

• Important! Every NetScaler command is internally assigned a unique ID.

  For some commands like 'add cs policy' and 'add server', the unique ID generated on the cluster configuration coordinator (CCO) already exists for another command of same type in a non-CCO node. Therefore, the command execution on the non-CCO node fails.

• The VRRP Feature does not work in a cluster setup that includes a node with a node ID of zero (0).
  [From Build 62.9] [# 618663]

Clustering

• If a load balancing server is trying to synchronize its states, occasionally one or more cluster nodes might get stuck in a Service state. As a result, the other nodes in the cluster might be unavailable, which leads to an improper cluster formation.
  [From Build 64.9] [# 651828]

• The Node-to-Node Messaging (NNM) framework for clustering wastes CPU time in the packet engine (PE) loop. With this fix, the appliance implements a yielding logic in the PE loop to reduce the NNM invocation frequency.

Configuration Utility

• The NetScaler graphical user interface (GUI) has been enhanced to provide a better user interaction experience. It now provides you with a workflow-based experience, which guides you through the entire configuration. The configuration settings have been classified as basic and advanced for some features. The NetScaler ADC configuration utility and NetScaler Gateway configuration utility has also been reimplemented in HTML. As a result of these enhancements, the GUI does not display pop-up dialog boxes for most features and you no longer need Java Runtime Environment (JRE) to access these features through the GUI.

  [From Build 55.8] [# 529356, 533790, 534403]

Content Switching

• If an invalid HTTP request that spans multiple TCP segments is sent to a content switching virtual server, the NetScaler ADC might skip the load balancing decision and initiate a connection from the SNIP address to the content switching virtual server. This can cause the ADC to fail.

  To prevent this problem, the ADC closes the client connection when this situation arises.
  [From Build 54.9] [# 501856]

• If you perform the following sequence of actions, the second command fails when the restart process runs the commands, because that process adds the gotopriorityexpression to the second binding:

  1. Bind a policy to a content switching virtual server and specify a gotopriorityexpression.

  2. Bind a filter or compression policy to another content switching virtual server without specifying a gotopriorityexpression.

  3. Save the configuration and restart the appliance.
  [From Build 55.8] [# 523636, 532832, 533690]

• Statistics do not appear correctly for a DNS load balancing virtual server.
  [From Build 51.10] [# 462862]

• The DNS cache entries are not flushed if the DNS caching feature has been disabled for approximately 250 days.
  [From Build 52.11] [# 471707]

• If a server sends a NODATA response that has CNAME record in the answer section and no records in the authoritative and additional sections, the response is marked for CNAME caching on the NetScaler ADC, because it is incorrectly assumed to be a referral response. As a result, the ADC sends a blank response to subsequent queries, of any query type, for the canonical name.
  [From Build 52.11] [# 477552]

• If the number of records in a DNS response for a domain exceeds the Netscaler ADC limit, or if one of the records in the response contains invalid data, the NetScaler ADC does not cache the response. As a result, DNS resolution using NetScaler nameserver entities fails.
  [From Build 52.11] [# 437529]

• If, while adding a DNS record (such as addrec and nsrec) from the GUI or by using the NITRO API, you specify the TTL value as 3600, the value of the minimum TTL of the SOA record is used instead.
  [From Build 53.9] [# 382478]

• When a NetScaler ADC is deployed as a DNS server with caching enabled, and "flush dns proxyRecords" is used when the ADC is serving a large volume of traffic and has a large number of records in its cache, the ADC might fail.
  [From Build 53.9] [# 484069]

• If caching is enabled, records present in the additional and authoritative section of a response are cached. If a request for the same records is answered by DNS cache, the Authoritative Answer (AA) bit is not set in the response but if the request for the same records is answered by querying the back-end server then the AA bit is set in the response.
  [From Build 59.13] [# 543222, 257952]

• Non-standard query packets are altered before they are forwarded to back-end servers, which causes the server to respond with a "FORMAT error" message.
  [From Build 59.13] [# 559064]

• If, while a DNS-TCP client request is in surge queue, the NetScaler appliance receives a FIN from the client and responds with a FIN or ACK before the queued request is forwarded to the backend server, the appliance might fail.
  [From Build 60.7] [# 581723]

• If, while adding a DNS record (such as addrec and nsrec) from the GUI or by using the NITRO API, you specify the TTL value as 3600, the value of the minimum TTL of the SOA record is used instead.

• If the DNS server from which the cached DNS records are being served goes DOWN, the proactive DNS update queries are redirected to the back-end server.
  [From Build 65.11] [# 660562]

• The set lb vserver command allows you to assign the same IP address to the DNS name server and the DNS virtual server. With this fix, neither the set lb vserver nor the add dns nameServer command, nor the NetScaler GUI, allows you to assign the same address to both virtual servers.
  [From Build 66.9] [# 665651]

• When a NetScaler appliance on which DNSSEC is configured is an authoritative DNS server for two domain zones, the appliance might send the same RRSIG responses to both zones instead of responding to only the appropriate zone.
  [From Build 66.9] [# 671880]

• In ADNS and resolver mode, the NetScaler appliance does not support the OPT option. Therefore, it strips this option when responding to a client. In proxy mode, the query is forwarded as-is to the back end. If the response contains the EDNS Client Subnet (ECS) option, the response is forwarded to the client as-is, but not cached. If the back end does not support ECS option and therefore strips this option from the response, the response is cached as well as forwarded.
  [From Build 66.9] [# 672905]

DataStream

• If you use SQL server driver for SQL Server 2000 SP1, the databases are not enumerated for Kerberos authentication on the NetScaler ADC, because the ADC does not process the SSPI packet correctly.

  - The appliance is configured in transparent mode.

  - The appliance performs Windows authentication for MSSQL requests.
  [From Build 56.22] [# 539922]

• If the NetScaler appliance receives a prelogin message request from a Visual Studio 2015 client, it sends an incorrect response. As a result, the client becomes unresponsive.
  [From Build 62.9] [# 613239, 616404]

• A NetScaler client becomes unresponsive if:

  1. The NetScaler appliance receives the complete response to the client's query from the server.

  2. At the same time, the client sends an attention packet to the appliance.

  The client becomes unresponsive because the appliance closes the server-side connection but does not send the client a response to the attention packet.

GSLB

• If a GSLB domain is queried through VPN, NetScaler fails.This issue is fixed in this release.
  [From Build 51.10] [# 488161]

• In rare cases, high management-CPU usage occurs and a large number of error messages appear in the log file. As a result, queries to the location database might fail, and the backup load balancing method is used for site load balancing.
  [From Build 52.11] [# 453144, 455417]

• If you change the GSLB configuration while the GSLB feature is disabled, the NetScaler ADC might process some stale messages when you enable the feature. As a result, the ADC might dump core and restart.
  [From Build 53.9] [# 485811]

• Configuring a hash based backup load balancing method on a GSLB virtual server might cause the NetScaler ADC to fail if traffic triggers the backup method.
  [From Build 53.9] [# 496676]

• Synchronization of the GSLB configuration fails if the RPC-node password of the GSLB sites contains an exclamation point (!).
  [From Build 54.9] [# 511192, 511521, 524390]

• If you have deployed the NetScaler ADC in a high availability (HA) setup in INC mode, you cannot leverage a SNIP address to host the ADNS Service or a site IP address, because these addresses do not float across the HA nodes. An independent site IP address with SSH enabled is required. With this fix, SSH can be enabled on an independent site IP address.
  [From Build 54.9] [# 505546, 505526, 523055]

• If you force synchronization of the GSLB configuration, the non-default settings on the RPC node are lost. As a result, the GSLB auto-sync functionality is lost.

  [From Build 56.22] [# 528060]

• Loading a new location file that has a coordinate outside the correct range (-90 to +90 latitude or -180 to +180 longitude) can cause the appliance to fail.

  Recommendation: After loading any location file, use the command, "show locationparameters" to get a summary of the coordinates loaded and any parsing errors. The specific problems are reported in /var/log/ns.log.
  [From Build 58.11] [# 550294]

• GSLB virtual server configured with Dynamic Proximity as LB method fails.
  [From Build 59.13] [# 578969]

• If you have configured the canonical name as the GSLB domain in NetScaler appliance, when the backend server returns the CNAME record without the requested record, NetScaler appliance changes the TTL value of the GSLB domain with the TTL value of the CNAME record.
  [From Build 59.13] [# 582925]

• If a server entity (for example, a server IP address or server name) is associated with both a GSLB entity and a non-GSLB entity on a GSLB site, and the GSLB configuration is synced to another site that does not include this server entity, the synchronization removes the server entity and all other entities associated with that server.
  [From Build 61.11] [# 590336]

• In a GSLB high availability setup, if a node stays in secondary state for more than 249 days, the service state might not be updated on this node after it becomes the primary node.
  [From Build 65.11] [# 658093]

Graphical User Interface

• If you enable NTP synchronization on a NetScaler ADC, the ntpd service binds to port 3010. The binding causes resource conflicts, because the port was reserved for the nsnetsvc service.
  [From Build 54.9] [# 502309, 503357]

HTML Injection

• The JavaScript inserted by NetScaler ADC for obtaining client side measurements contains a syntax error. This interferes with page rendering which leads to Outlook Web App displaying error popups.
  [From Build 55.8] [# 518072, 518272]

High Availability

• By default, HA synchronization enables the following features and modes on the secondary appliance:

  - Features: Web logging (WL) and surge protection (SP)

  - Modes: L3 and Edge
  [From Build 54.9] [# 512034, 516783]

• When there are a large number of sessions (in the order of millions, due to, for example load balancing persistence) to be synchronized, and the link between the primary and secondary appliance is very slow, the primary appliance quickly consumes all the NetScaler buffer. Therefore, there is no buffer to allocate to other sub-systems. This can result in various disruptions such as failover.
  [From Build 55.8] [# 519085, 525203, 533671]

• In a high availability configuration, if the diff ns config command includes the -ignoreDeviceSpecific parameter, the command fails and does not display the difference in configurations between the two nodes.

Integrated Caching

• With integrated caching enabled, the NetScaler can crash when the evaluation of a callout 'result expression' (configured with the resultExpr parameter) results in a UNDEF condition.
  [From Build 51.10] [# 488145]

• When a byte-range request is sent for an object, and if that object is expired, a request is sent to the server to revalidate the object. If that object is now modified on the server, the full response is served to the NetScaler. In such a scenario, the NetScaler appliance can crash.
  [From Build 52.11] [# 494910, 497793]

• In an HA setup, if the integrated caching (IC) feature is not licensed, the IC configurations are not stored on the secondary appliance even though they are available on the primary appliance. With this fix, the IC configurations are also available on the secondary appliance.
  [From Build 58.11] [# 556437]

• In a NetScaler deployment that has integrated caching and SSL enabled, the NetScaler can crash in the following scenario:

  1. Client1 requests for an object that is not in cache.

  2. While the NetScaler fetches the object from the backend server, client2 (a slow client) sends a request for the same object.

  3. Client1 now decides to reset the connection.

  4. When available, NetScaler serves the object to the client2.

  However, since client2 is slow, large data is piled up on the NetScaler that needs to be forwarded to client2. When the NetScaler tries to send this large data to the client, the NetScaler can crash.

• The NetScaler GUI does not reflect the correct count of cached objects whereas this number is shown correctly through the CLI.
  [From Build 61.11] [# 607622, 608517]

• When a flash cache is in use with HTTPS traffic, only the initial client request is serviced. Subsequent client requests fail.
  [From Build 61.11] [# 602984]

• If you set the PINNED option for a cache content group, caching continues in this group even if the group uses more than its allocated memory, until the integrated caching memory is exhausted. Because cached objects in these groups cannot be removed until the appliance is restarted, there might be a situation in which no more objects can be cached and the appliance resets the connections of clients who send additional requests.

Load Balancing

• The NetScaler ADC fails if both the following conditions are met:

  - a large number of SIP messages are received.

  - the size of the SIP messages is greater than the jumbo MTU configured on the ADC.
  [From Build 51.10] [# 484547]

• If the secure option is enabled on a CITRIX-WI-EXTENDED monitor that is bound to a service, then the monitor incorrectly marks the monitor probes as failed.
  [From Build 51.10] [# 488007, 487724]

• If a client connection is in the CLOSE_WAIT state, the NetScaler ADC does not send PUSH notifications to the client. However, it reports success to the PUSH server.
  [From Build 52.11] [# 489197]

• If you have configured the RADIUS PI expression CLIENT.UDP.RADIUS.ATTR_TYPE(<avp code>) for content switching, rule-based persistency, or the token load balancing method, and you typecast the result of this expression to an integer or IP address by using the expression TYPECAST_NUM_AT / TYPECAST_IP_ADDRESS_AT, the typecast operation fails.
  [From Build 52.11] [# 482113]

  [From Build 54.9] [# 505543]

• A Storefront service on a NetScaler ADC is not marked as DOWN even though all the storefront services bound to the StoreFront server are manually brought down.
  [From Build 54.9] [# 460040]

• If a load balancing virtual server on which persistence is configured is bound to a load balancing group that has no persistence setting, the NetScaler ADC does not change the virtual server's persistence setting. As a result, when traffic arrives at the virtual server, it tries to create a persistence session, but that session fails and the number of sessions increases.
  [From Build 54.9] [# 497470]

• The SIP monitor probe has an invalid character in the VIA header. As a result, the probe fails and an incorrect service state might appear.
  [From Build 55.8] [# 519644]

• If you have set the persistence type to COOKIEINSERT, you can now encrypt the cookie in addition to any existing SSL encryption by using the NetScaler command line and configuration utility.

  At the NetScaler command prompt, type:

  set lb parameter -useSecuredPersistenceCookie Enabled-cookiePassphrase test

  In the configuration utility, navigate to Traffic Management > Load Balancing > Change Load Balancing Parameters and select Use Secured Persistence Cookie and Cookie Passphrase and enter a passphrase.

• If your spillover policy contains the ACTIVETRANSACTIONS or the SURGECOUNT expression (for example, <expression>. ACTIVETRANSACTIONS.GT(<N>)), traffic might spill over to the virtual server bound to this policy even though the current value of the counter has not reached N. This is because these two expressions use an arbitrary number for comparison.

  For example, spillover to a virtual server bound to the following policy might occur before the active transactions counter reaches a value of 10:

  SYS.VSERVER("A').ACTIVETRANSACTION.GT(10) -action spillover
  [From Build 55.8] [# 516615]

• If the DNS load balancing virtual server is configured with DNS rate limiting or analytic policies, the appliance might fail under certain heavy load conditions.
  [From Build 56.22] [# 528070]

• Unsetting one of the load balancing virtual server parameters, such as redirect URL, backup virtual server, push virtual server, or authentication profile, incorrectly unsets the appflowLog parameter.
  [From Build 56.22] [# 523239]

• When you bind a DNS policy to the DEFAULT_GLOBAL bind point, the policy's priority is automatically set to 65545, which exceeds the supported priority range. The "operation not permitted" error message appears.

  [From Build 62.9] [# 612943]

• In a high availability (HA) setup, after a forced HA synchronization, the configuration is first cleared and then reapplied on the secondary node. As part of the synchronization operation, the service state changes are logged in the ns.log file. Due to repeated forced synchronizations, these messages flood the ns.log file. However, the service state messages are applicable only to the primary node and not relevant to the secondary node. Therefore, these messages are not logged in the ns.log file on the secondary node.
  [From Build 64.9] [# 645197]

• A secure HTTP-ECV monitor might time out if the back-end server sends a large certificate.
  [From Build 64.9] [# 638148]

NITRO

• When using the NITRO API to upload a file, make sure that each directory in the file path has the 755 (read, write, execute) permission.

  For example, to upload a file to the "/nsconfig/ssl/" directory, the following directories must have the 755 permission:

  - flash (because the "/nsconfig" folder is actually a link to "/flash/nsconfig/" directory)

  - nsconfig

  - ssl

• Remote users who use the Windows full client/plugin to access Netscaler Gateway can encounter an issue if the Internet Explorer browser has "Automatic Configuration Script" settings configured for Proxy, and the automatic configuration script file is unreachable from the user device at the time of Gateway session establishment. In this scenario, the Windows plugin incorrectly connects to the Proxy server configured in the Manual Settings and fails to establish the session. The expected correct behavior in this situation would be to bypass the proxy and connect to NetScaler Gateway directly.

  Users are affected only if:

  1. They use Windows full client for establishing the gateway session

  AND

  2. They have both Automatic Configuration script and Manual configuration for Proxy in their Internet Explorer settings

  AND

  3. The configured Automatic Proxy script file happens to be unreachable from the user's device (for example the Automatic Proxy script file address is an internal address and not reachable remotely).

• Blocking Traffic on Internal Ports

  The NetScaler appliance does not block traffic that matches an ACL rule if the traffic is destined to the appliance's NSIP address, or one of its SNIP addresses, and a port in the 3008-3011 range.

  This behavior is now specified by the default setting of the new Implicit ACL Allow (implicitACLAllow) parameter (of the L3 param command). You can disable this parameter if you want to block traffic to ports in the 3008-3011 range. An appliance in a high availability configuration makes an exception for its partner (primary or secondary) node. It does not block traffic from that node.

  To disable or enable this parameter by using the command line interface

  At the command prompt, type:

  > set l3param -implicitACLAllow [ENABLED|DISABLED]

  Note: The parameter implicitACLAllow is enabled by default.

  Example:

  > set l3param -implicitACLAllow DISABLED

• On a NetScaler appliance with a NetScaler owned IP address configured with a VMAC address on a traffic domain, when a peer device sends an ARP request with unicast MAC for this IP address, the NetScaler appliance responds with the physical MAC address instead of the VMAC address. As a result, the NetScaler appliance drops packets forwarded by the peer device if the packets are destined to the physical MAC address for that IP address.

  [From Build 61.11] [# 608558]

• If a connection matches a RNAT rule, the NetScaler appliance probes for the existence of the destination server before processing the connection based on the RNAT rule. The connection that is used for probing is sometimes left idle on the appliance and a new connection is opened once the client connection is successfully established. This probe connection stays idle for the configured idle timeout (2.5 hours) thus holding up resources on the server.

  Now, these probe connections are flushed within a minute if they remain idle.

  [From Build 62.9] [# 618633]

• The dynamic routing module on a NetScaler appliance might incorrectly save the command "redistribute intranet" as "redistribute trill" in the ZebOS configuration file. Because the appliance does not support the "redistribute trill" command, after a failover in a high availability setup, the new primary node treats the "redistribute trill" command as an error and does not apply the subsequent commands in the ZebOS configuration file. This results in loss of configuration.

Back-end systems reject the connection if the SNIP address is listed in their deny ACL rules. Now, the NetScaler appliance does not initiate any new back-end connection when all the ports of all IP addresses in a netprofile are being used.

• In release 10.5 or later, TLS protocol versions 1.1 and 1.2 are enabled by default, but can typically be controlled by configuration. For some types of services, however, configuration is not possible and the default settings are used: VPN and dynamically configured services like StoreFront and AppController, and SSL_BRIDGE services to which secure monitors are bound. To allow users to disable TLS 1.1 and 1.2 on these kinds of services, two SSL parameters have been introduced: montls1112disable and svctls1112disable. When set to ENABLED, these parameters disable TLS 1.1 and 1.2 for these types of cases. The montls1112disable option can be toggled on and off during runtime, but the svc1112disable option cannot. If you enable it and then want to disable it, you have to change its setting to DISABLED and then restart the appliance.

• 2048-bit Default Certificates on the NetScaler Appliance

  With this release, the length of the default certificate on a NetScaler appliance is a 2048 bits. However, upgrading to release 11.0 does not automatically install a 2048-bit certificate.

  Note: Citrix recommends that you replace the default certificate with a certificate issued by a CA.

  After upgrading an MPX appliance to release 11.0, if you want to replace the old internal default certificate (1024 bits), delete all your old certificate-key pairs that have "ns-" as the first three characters, and then restart the appliance to automatically generate a 2048-bit default certificate.

  On a VPX appliance that does not have licenses, you can continue to use the old (512-bit) default certificate after the upgrade, although a 512-bit certificate-key pair is not secure and might not work with the latest browsers. If you have the proper licenses, you can delete all your old certificate-key pairs that have "ns-" as the first three characters, and then restart the appliance to automatically generate a 2048-bit default certificate.

• In release 10.5 or later, TLS protocol versions 1.1 and 1.2 are enabled by default, but you can disable them for all services except SSL_BRIDGE and dynamic services, which can't otherwise be configured. In this release, you can disable TLS1.1/1.2 on SSL_BRIDGE and dynamic services by enabling the new "svctls1112disable" and "montls1112disable" parameters, as follows:

  > set ssl param -svctls1112disable enable -montls1112disable enable

  After the new parameters are enabled, you cannot disable them by using the "set ssl param" command. You must edit the configuration (ns.conf) file as follows:

  1. Remove these parameters from the "set ssl param" command.

  2. Save the configuration.

  3. Restart the appliance.

• Support for MPTCP Version Negotiation

  A client can now establish an MPTCP connection with NetScaler appliance even if the client's and the NetScaler appliance's MPTCP versions does not match. If the MPTCP version of the client is higher than the one supported on the appliance, the client falls back to a lower or equal version. If the appliance supports that version, the MPTCP session continues. Otherwise, the appliance falls back to a normal TCP session.
  [From Build 60.7] [# 529883]

• For a load balancing configuration, the NetScaler appliance uses the server-side session information instead of the client-side session information for handling a client-side packet. As a result, the NetScaler appliance becomes unresponsive.
