Enable or disable a cache redirection virtual server
When you create a cache redirection virtual server, it is enabled by default. If you disable a cache redirection virtual server, its state changes to OUT OF SERVICE and it stops redirecting cacheable client requests. However, the NetScaler appliance continues to respond to ARP and ping requests for the IP address of this virtual server.
