Question

Scenario: A Citrix Administrator configured a new router that requires some incoming and outgoing traffic to take different paths through it. The administrator notices that this is failing and runs a network trace. After a short monitoring period, the administrator notices that the packets are still NOT getting to the new router from the NetScaler. Which mode should the administrator disable on the NetScaler to facilitate the successful routing of the packets?

Options

  • AUSIP
  • BUSNIP
  • CLayer3
  • DMAC-based forwarding (MBF)

Explanation

USIP mode makes the ADC spoof the client's IP when connecting to the next hop, which requires symmetric return routing through the NetScaler. In an asymmetric path scenario (different in/out routes), those return packets never reach the ADC, so disabling USIP (to fall back to using the SNIP as source) ensures the router sees and forwards traffic correctly.
