QuestionQ11

Security and Filtering

Scenario: A Citrix Engineer must protect an application by determining whether requests come from known malicious IP addresses. The Security team maintains an IP-address list on a website that can be queried in this format: https://security.workspacelab.com/cgi-bin/ip_verify.cgi?cip=192.168.10.10

Which parameter set must the engineer configure in the HTTP Callout to successfully query the Security team’s website?

Explanation

An HTTP Callout must define the destination server, Host header, URL stem, query parameters, and the response data to evaluate. For a GET callout, configured parameters are inserted into the URL query string, so the client IP must be supplied as cip to form the required endpoint request. The Host header identifies security.workspacelab.com; a Client-IP header does not satisfy the endpoint’s required query parameter.
