Question

Scenario: The policies below are bound to a content-switching virtual server. bind cs vserver vserver1 -policyName CSPOL_7 -priority 100 - gotoPriorityExpression NEXT bind cs vserver vserver1 -policyName CSPOL_5 -priority 90 bind cs vserver vserver1 -policyName CSPOL_9 -priority 110 bind cs vserver vserver1 -policyName CSPOL_4 -priority 120 bind cs vserver vserver1 -policyName CSPOL_8 -priority 210 If policy CSPOL_7 is invoked, which policy should be invoked next?

Options

  • ACSPOL_9
  • BCSPOL_8
  • CCSPOL_5
  • DCSPOL_4

Explanation

CSPOL_9 is correct because NetScaler evaluates content-switching policies in ascending priority order (lower number = evaluated first), and the gotoPriorityExpression NEXT on CSPOL_7 (priority 100) instructs the engine to continue to the very next policy in sequence - which is CSPOL_9 at priority 110.

Why the distractors are wrong:

  • C (CSPOL_5, priority 90) was already evaluated before CSPOL_7 since 90 < 100 - NEXT never goes backward.
  • D (CSPOL_4, priority 120) is skipped because CSPOL_9 (priority 110) sits between 100 and 120 in the sequence.
  • B (CSPOL_8, priority 210) is far down the chain and is not the immediately next policy.

Memory tip: Think of NEXT like a linked list - it always moves to the adjacent higher priority number, not a random jump. Sort the priorities numerically (90 → 100 → 110 → 120 → 210) and NEXT simply advances one step forward in that sorted list.
