Citrix Endpoint Management Administration — Question 80

Scenario: A Citrix Engineer needs to block requests from a list of IP addresses in a database maintained by the Security team. The Security team has built a web application that will send a response of either “Blocked” or “Allowed,” based on whether the given IP address is on the list.

Which expression should the engineer use to extract the status for policy processing?

Answer options

• A. HTTP.RES.BODY(1000)
• B. HTTP.RES.CONTENT_LENGTH.GT(0)
• C. HTTP.RES.HEADER(“Connection”)
• D. HTTP.RES.STATUS

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as HTTP.RES.BODY(1000) allows the engineer to extract the body of the HTTP response, where the 'Blocked' or 'Allowed' status is indicated. The other options do not directly provide the status message from the body of the response; for instance, B checks the content length, C retrieves a header unrelated to the blocking status, and D only provides the HTTP status code, which does not convey the specific blocking information.
