Thanks for the responses thus far. &nbsp;So the SNIP is essentially a pass-thru address for a particular subnet that contains one or more servers that are in the NS in question?

Just trying to understand the difference between these two. &nbsp;I understand exactly what a VIP is, but my confusion is over how / why SNIPs come in to play, as they seem to have the same concept. &nbsp;Is it just a matter of the VIP is client accessible and the SNIP is Netscaler accessible?<br />

Thanks in advance

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Networking

Networking hardware includes the physical devices facilitating the use of a computer network. Typically, networking hardware includes gateways, routers, network bridges, modems, wireless access points, networking cables, line drivers, switches, hubs, and repeaters. But it also includes hybrid network devices such as multilayer switches, protocol converters, bridge routers, proxy servers, firewalls, network address translators, multiplexers, network interface controllers, wireless network interface controllers, ISDN terminal adapters and other related hardware.
