Configure edge mode
When deployed at the edge of a network, the NetScaler appliance dynamically learns about the servers on that network. Edge mode enables the appliance to dynamically learn about up to 40,000 HTTP servers and proxy TCP connections for these servers.
This mode turns on the collection of statistics for the dynamically learned services and is typically used in transparent deployments for cache redirection.
Enable edge mode by using the CLI
At the command prompt, type the following commands to enable edge mode and verify the setting:
- enable ns mode Edge
- show ns mode
Example:
> enable ns mode edge
Done
