1.	Basic Information Collection
	For NetScaler MPX/SDX, confirm serial number, for NetScaler VPX, confirm the ORG ID. NetScaler detail version, such as NS 10.5 build 60.7. NetScaler deployment, standalone or HA. Network topology with IP address, interface as detail as possible. (Note: if there is nstrace for information collection, provide the IP address as supplementary information.) Is there change on NetScaler and environment before the issue takes place? When does the issue happen first? (Attach the screenshot/video of error message if possible.)
