Configuring NSVLAN Using the Configuration Utility

Before You Begin
• Create a port channel on the Citrix NetScaler Application Delivery Controller (ADC) appliance and map
• Configure the NetScaler IP address (NSIP) on the appliance.
Step 1 Navigate to System > Settings.
Step 2 In the details pane, under Settings, click Change NSVLAN Settings.
Step 3
In the Configure NSVLAN Settings dialog box, set the parameters. For a description of a parameter, hover the mouse
cursor over the corresponding field.
Step 4 Under Interfaces, choose the interfaces from the Available Interfaces list and click Add to move them to the Configured
Interfaces list.
Step 5 Click OK. In the Warning dialog box, click OK. The configuration takes effect after the Citrix NetScaler Application
Delivery Controller (ADC) appliance is restarted.
Route Health Injection
Route Health Injection (RHI)) allows NetScaler to advertise the VIPs to upstream and downstream routers.
The NetScaler uses health probes together. When a VIP becomes unavailable, NetScaler withdraws the RHI
information.
Once the Service Card (SC) Engine on the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch receives the RHI advertised
messages from the Intelligent Service Card Client (ISCC) residing on the NetScaler appliance, the switch
updates its routing tables to reflect the new route in the RHI message.
Use the show routing command on the switch to display the route automatically inserted for the VIP.

Intelligent Service Card Manager

The Intelligent Service Card Manager (ISCM) handles tasks related to the initialization and flow of Remote
Health Injection (RHI) messages.
During ISCM initialization, the ISCM registers with the Universal Routing information Base (URIB) as a
URIB client so that it can access the routing database. After registration is successful, the ISCM can add routes
received from NetScaler to the routing database.
