Netscaler DataStream Enhancements in V10…Continuing to Build on Game Changing ADC Functionality
When Netscaler DataStream was first announced, it introduced something that no other ADC was able to offer to the market……an intelligent way to accelerate, optimize and give full visibility to native SQL traffic. Fast forward, a year later, we’ve received a tremendous amount of field adoption and validation, allowing us to continue to add functionality to what appears to be the next frontier in the ...
NetScaler for the XenDesktop\XenApp Dummy
I have been working with XenApp since the WinFrame and MetaFrame days. Back then we had to create ALTADDR and NAT entries on the firewall to allow connections from the Internet. Later, we moved into CSG (Citrix Secure Gateway) that allowed only 443 and a single IP address to be exposed to the Internet to access the internal Presentation Server farm.Now, the preferred method is Access ...
Optimizing PVS
While everyone using Provisioning Services (PVS) in a productive environment should be aware of the basic networking best practices outlined within CTX117374 or the design considerations at CTX125126, there are a couple of advanced configuration options that are not widely known. Today I would like to discuss some of these.Subnet AffinityThe Subnet Affinity feature which has been introduced with PVS5.6, is an advanced load balancing ...
Changing the Load Balancing Algorithm
or Load Balancing MethodThe load balancing algorithm (or load balancing method) defines the criteria that the NetScaler uses to select the server to which to send client requests. When the configured criteria are met for the selected server, the NetScaler then selects a different server. Load balancing granularity refers to the criteria that the NetScaler uses to decide the load balancing method in a ...
Adding External AAA to Your Legacy Applications
An old topic resurfaced last week. It pertained to updating legacy applications by using NetScaler services rather than changing the application code. No New Trick for This Old Dog The customer was telling me that they wanted to publish an application only to pre-authorized users. The only problem was that this legacy application was written for internal consumption only, and, as such, had no authentication ...
