EVE-NG admits a node by the CPU and RAM set on it, so a running node counts against your plan at these values. This template starts nodes at 2 vCPU and 2,048 MB, which fits the free demo’s 6 vCPU and 8 GB, so you can start one there and open its console.

SSL offload in front of a web server

Terminate HTTPS on NetScaler for an Alpine Linux web server that only serves HTTP, with a second Alpine host as the client. You practise certificates, an SSL virtual server and service monitors.

  • 1×NetScaler ADC VPX nsvpx2 vCPU, 2048 MB
  • 2×Alpine Linux clbalpinebase2 vCPU, 512 MB each

Added with these defaults, the lab uses 6 vCPU and 3 GB of RAM. The smallest plan that fits is Lite, with 6 vCPU and 8 GB: £3 a day, or £0.50 an hour On-Demand.

Choose a planGive nodes more CPU or RAM and you add that instead.

Licences are yours to bring

CloudLabBox doesn't provide NetScaler licences. Use your own licence or a NetScaler evaluation for the throughput and features your lab needs.

Questions about NetScaler ADC VPX

What is Citrix NetScaler ADC VPX?

NetScaler ADC VPX (sold for some years as Citrix ADC) is a virtual application delivery controller: load balancing, content switching, SSL offload and gateway services.

Which NetScaler interface is for management?

EVE-NG labels the first interface 0/1 and the others 1/1 to 1/3. NetScaler is managed through its NSIP address; set it from the console before you use the web interface.

Is this the same product as Citrix ADC?

Yes. Citrix sold NetScaler as Citrix ADC from 2018 and returned to the NetScaler name in 2023, which is why the image names start with nsvpx.

Which NetScaler ADC VPX images are installed?

28 images, all listed on this page exactly as Add Node shows them. The newest is nsvpx-14.1-38.53.

How much CPU and RAM does a NetScaler ADC VPX node use?

When you add one, the nsvpx template adds 2 vCPU and 2048 MB of RAM. You can change both in Add Node, and your plan counts what each running node is set to.
