Properties
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| kind | string | Resource type identifier for a virtual server. |
| name | string | Unique name of the virtual server resource within its partition. |
| fullPath | string | Full administrative path including partition (e.g., /Common/my_virtual). |
| generation | integer | Configuration generation counter incremented on each change. |
| selfLink | string | Self-referencing URI for this virtual server resource. |
| addressStatus | string | Whether the virtual contributes to the operational status of the associated virtual address. |
| autoLasthop | string | Automatic last hop setting controlling return traffic routing when the BIG-IP is not the default gateway. |
| cmpEnabled | string | Whether Clustered Multi-Processing (CMP) acceleration is enabled for this virtual server. |
| connectionLimit | integer | Maximum number of concurrent connections allowed for this virtual server. A value of 0 means unlimited connections. |
| description | string | User-defined description of the virtual server and its purpose. |
| destination | string | Destination IP address and service port the virtual server listens on, specified in /partition/address:port or /partition/address.port format. |
| disabled | boolean | When true, the virtual server does not accept new connections. Existing connections are maintained. |
| enabled | boolean | When true, the virtual server accepts and processes client traffic. |
| fallbackPersistence | string | Persistence profile to use as a fallback when the primary persistence method fails to establish a session. |
| gtmScore | integer | Score value used by the Global Traffic Manager for load balancing decisions across data centers. |
| ipProtocol | string | Network protocol the virtual server handles. |
| mask | string | Network mask for the destination address. Use 255.255.255.255 for a host-specific virtual server or a subnet mask for a network virtual server. |
| mirror | string | Whether connection and persistence state mirroring is enabled for high-availability failover scenarios. |
| nat64 | string | Whether NAT64 IPv6-to-IPv4 address translation is enabled. |
| partition | string | Administrative partition containing this virtual server resource. |
| persist | array | Persistence profiles applied to the virtual server for maintaining session affinity. |
| pool | string | Default pool that receives traffic from this virtual server, specified as a full partition-qualified path. |
| profiles | array | Traffic processing profiles applied to this virtual server (e.g., HTTP, TCP, SSL profiles). |
| rateLimit | string | Maximum number of new connections per second. A value of 'disabled' or '0' means no rate limiting. |
| rateLimitMode | string | Scope at which rate limiting is applied. |
| rateLimitDstMask | integer | Destination address mask bits used for rate limit tracking. |
| rateLimitSrcMask | integer | Source address mask bits used for rate limit tracking. |
| rules | array | iRules applied to this virtual server for custom traffic processing logic. |
| source | string | Source address filter. Only connections from this network are accepted by the virtual server. |
| sourcePort | string | Source port translation behavior controlling how client source ports are handled. |
| synCookieStatus | string | Current SYN Cookie DDoS protection status. |
| translateAddress | string | Whether destination address translation is enabled. When enabled, the BIG-IP translates the destination address to the pool member address. |
| translatePort | string | Whether destination port translation is enabled. When enabled, the BIG-IP translates the destination port to the pool member port. |
| vlansEnabled | boolean | When true, the virtual server is enabled only on VLANs listed in the vlans property. |
| vlansDisabled | boolean | When true, the virtual server is disabled on VLANs listed in the vlans property. |
| vlans | array | List of VLANs on which the virtual server is enabled or disabled, depending on vlansEnabled/vlansDisabled setting. |
| vsIndex | integer | System-assigned index for the virtual server. |
