no

Return only those servers within the Cache Group that has this ID

cachegroupName

no

Return only those servers within the Cache Group that has this Name

dsId

no

Return only those servers assigned to the Delivery Service identified by this integral, unique identifier. If the Delivery Service has a Topology assigned to it, the servers endpoint will return each server whose Cache Group is associated with a Topology Node of that Topology and has the Server Capabilities that are required by the Delivery Service but excluding Origin Servers that are not assigned to the Delivery Service. For more information, see Configure Multi-Site Origin.

no

Return only the server with this integral, unique identifier

profileId

no

Return only those servers that are using the Profile that has this ID

status

no

Return only those servers with this status - see Health Protocol

type

no

Return only servers of this Type

topology

no

Return only servers who belong to cachegroups assigned to the Topology identified by this name

sortOrder

no

Changes the order of sorting. Either ascending (default or “asc”) or descending (“desc”)

limit

no

Choose the maximum number of results to return

offset

no

The number of results to skip before beginning to return results. Must use in conjunction with limit

page

no

Return the nth page of results, where “n” is the value of this parameter, pages are limit long and the first page is 1. If offset was defined, this query parameter has no effect. limit must be defined to make use of page.

#511 Request Example

Response Structure

cachegroup

A string that is the name of the Cache Group to which the server belongs

cachegroupId

An integer that is the ID of the Cache Group to which the server belongs

cdnId

The integral, unique identifier of the CDN to which the server belongs

cdnName

Name of the CDN to which the server belongs

domainName

The domain part of the server’s FQDN

guid

An identifier used to uniquely identify the server

Note

This is a legacy key which only still exists for compatibility reasons - it should always be null

hostName

The (short) hostname of the server

httpsPort

The port on which the server listens for incoming HTTPS connections/requests

id

An integral, unique identifier for this server

iloIpAddress

The IPv4 address of the server’s ILO service1

iloIpGateway

The IPv4 gateway address of the server’s ILO service1

iloIpNetmask

The IPv4 subnet mask of the server’s ILO service1

iloPassword

The password of the of the server’s ILO service user1 - displays as simply ****** if the currently logged-in user does not have the ‘admin’ or ‘operations’ Role(s)

iloUsername

The user name for the server’s ILO service1

interfaces

A set of the network interfaces in use by the server. In most scenarios, only one will be present, but it is illegal for this set to be an empty collection.

ipAddresses

A set of objects representing IP Addresses assigned to this network interface. In most scenarios, only one or two (usually one IPv4 address and one IPv6 address) will be present, but it is illegal for this set to be an empty collection.

address

The actual IP address, including any mask as a CIDR-notation suffix

gateway

Either the IP address of the network gateway for this address, or null to signify that no such gateway exists

serviceAddress

A boolean that describes whether or not the server’s main service is available at this IP address. When this property is true, the IP address is referred to as a “service address”. It is illegal for a server to not have at least one service address. It is also illegal for a server to have more than one service address of the same address family (i.e. more than one IPv4 service address and/or more than one IPv6 address). Finally, all service addresses for a server must be contained within one interface - which is therefore sometimes referred to as the “service interface” for the server.

maxBandwidth

The maximum healthy bandwidth allowed for this interface. If bandwidth exceeds this limit, Traffic Monitors will consider the entire server unhealthy - which includes all configured network interfaces. If this is null, it has the meaning “no limit”. It has no effect if monitor is not true for this interface.

See also

Health Protocol

monitor

mtu

The MTU of this interface. If it is null, it may be assumed that the information is either not available or not applicable for this interface.

name

The name of the interface. No two interfaces of the same server may share a name. It is the same as the network interface’s device name on the server, e.g. eth0.

lastUpdated

The date and time at which this server description was last modified

mgmtIpAddress

The IPv4 address of some network interface on the server used for ‘management’

Deprecated since version 3.0: This field is deprecated and will be removed in a future API version. Operators should migrate this data into the interfaces property of the server.

mgmtIpGateway
