Different nitro versions about check_netscaler HOT 2 CLOSED

Hi Marco,

to be honest, I never noticed that there exists a v2 version of the NITRO API. That's new to me. On a VPX with the latest 12.0 firmware it throws me the following error when I try to logon with v2.

NetScaler UNKNOWN - {"errorcode":-1,"message":"Version not supported","severity":"ERROR"}

Could It be that the v2 API is only available on SDX? Adding another switch for selecting the version of the API shouldn't be that problem. This was planed for a future release anyways, when a new API version becomes available.

It seems that the content type between an SDX and API v2 and other appliances differ (see https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/sdx/12/nitro-api-doc/nitro-rest-api.html). Do you see any other differences? What exactly did you changed to get it running?

# SDX
Content-Type:application/vnd.com.citrix.sdx.login+json

# VPX (and the current implementation of t he API)
Content-Type:application/vnd.com.citrix.netscaler.login+json

from check_netscaler.

I've added a new switch --api which allows you to select a specific version of the API, e.g. --api='v2'. I don't know if that works. Maybe you could test this with your SDX appliance.
