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 ...

Load Balancing – Persistence Groups

thumb-lbbackuppersistence_101112.jpg

Configuring persistence for a group of vserversIf you want to apply persistence across multiple vservers, you can add the vservers to a persistence group and then specify a persistence method. You bind virtual servers using different protocols in one group and configure persistence across the different protocols. When persistence is set on the group of virtual servers, client requests are directed to the same ...

Load Balancing – Backup Persistence

LBBackupPersistence_101108.jpg

Configuring a backup persistence methodThe NetScaler Load Balancer uses the backup persistence option when the primary persistence fails. For example, the primary persistence type is set to Cookie Insert, and backup persistence is set to Source IP. When the client browsers do not support cookies, Source IP persistence is used. To set the backup persistence option to Source IP, you must set the primary ...

Load Balancing – User Defined Persistence

thumb-PersistenceUserDefined_1010.jpg

Configuring Persistence Based on User-Defined RulesThe Citrix NetScaler initially selects a server by using a load balancing method. With persistence configured, enabling the NetScaler to send any subsequent client requests to the selected server, the server can access state information for that client. If persistence is configured, it overrides the load balancing methods once the server has been selected. If the configured persistence applies ...

Load Balancing – Persistence

thumb-LB_Persistence_100831.jpg

Load balancing with persistence allows you to distribute client requests across multiple servers and optimize resource utilization. Load balancers improve server fault tolerance and end-user response time. In a scenario with a limited number of servers providing service to a large number of clients, a server can become overloaded and degrade server performance. Load balancing is used to prevent bottlenecks by forwarding the client ...
