Standard New VPN in NetScaler 11.0

8:28 PM 1 Comment
Standard New VPN in NetScaler 11.0 -

When NetScaler Gateway the whole idea of ​​this gateway was first developed, was to act as a secure entry point into the corporate intranet via a VPN tunnel. There were only two mode of operations Clientless VPN (commonly known as CVPN known) and full VPN.

Both types of access required to the user with his / her LDAP credentials authenticate with a second factor as RSA Key or VIP token. Once successfully authenticates the user, he would be entitled to receive a full or CVPN VPN tunnel access to the Intranet Zone.

The specialized case of CVPN came into play when the user would bring in conjunction with a browser and he / she intends to access behind the gateway webservers, actually a VPN client to be installed on the client computer without , In this case, the user would be able to target its access to HTTP based connections by choosing the CVPN mode of operations only to restrict.

, since the anticipated access mode was always full VPN, the default configuration for NetScaler Gateway allows VPN access, which was indicated by:

Transparent Interception: ON

as the landscape of products changed in Citrix and NetScaler Gateway became a part of XenMobile solution as well, we have begun to custom rules in the NetScaler gateway configuration, adding that access to ensure XenMobile client (WorxHome) is limited , Against this background, we believe that a more restrictive standard a better option would be

Therefore from 11.0.F release, would our standard NetScaler Gateway VPN access configuration as follows :.

Transparent Interception: OFF

[1945003umdasbesteausunseremVerständnis], should the customer due to this update an interruption do not see in their daily work, because we already have a special rule in place for the full VPN have client-based access

for customers who are in the earlier versions of NetScaler Gateway and having to change their default configuration manually want, provided detailed information in the following document on our web site .:

Like all configuration changes, Citrix recommend this implemented in a production environment before being evaluated in a test environment.

Windows 10-optimized for XenDesktop -

Statistics are fun.

It's amazing what an interesting insight you get from the statistics . For example:

  1. would Approximately 20% of workers work harder if their employer offered a $ 1,000 shopping spree at the store of their choice (you hear that Citrix? 😉)
    2. so watch
  2. Approximately 20% of people looking at the super Bowl do for football, watching the rest commercials
  3. Approximately 20% of spending worldwide machine copy caused by people sitting on them - that's awesome
  4. in the past year, my blogs are 20% funnier

And my absolute favorite statistic is Homer Simpson (who else?) .:

people with may Statistics all Kent, know forty percent of all people that prove

We have a Windows 10 optimization Guide was to provide. of Windows 10 optimization guide was focused on the identification, for VDI, as many of the extra components, server density would adversely affect, while focusing on the balance of the user experience, as best in the XenApp Practice stated: For the best combination of ease of use and optimize resource usage appropriately.

in the course of several blog posts, we looked to optimize the following points:

  1. Default apps
  2. services
  3. Scheduled tasks
  4. User interface
  5. runtime
  6. released
  7. ICA

[1945002diegroßeFrageNow] is ...

"What these changes have impact?"

First, it gave me something to blog (This is a big deal. After 5+ years of blogging, I'm out of ideas. In the indeed, I believe that this blog 201 Citrix)

But most of you probably care more about the second part. What the impact on server density? And for that, my minions, I mean the Citrix Solutions Lab, took over. (We joke that the Citrix Solutions Lab should be renamed to "Feller Lab" because it seems like they do a lot of testing for me - sorry for them).

for the number of tests we had two different strategies, one would on the Citrix "High Server Scalability" policy setting simply turn. This corresponded to Part 7 of the Windows 10-optimization blog.

The second policy we were 10 optimizations any Windows application we discussed in Parts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 of the 10 optimization blog series of Windows.

  • to the Citrix turn scalability policy, gave us a 10% [1945007Bump] in user density.
  • turn on the custom OS optimization policy gave us almost another 10% bump in the density.
  • on possible these two options Turning roughly 20% more users on our physical host.

Definitely not a bad start.

  • The new product category page for thin clients. It explains what each level of the Citrix Ready verification means with a simple overview, which you can check at any level and the skills of the individual thin clients.
  • An overview document, the customer can check the function of each test stage. In this way, customers can think about the properties, they may need, not today, but in the near future.
  • improvements in verification tests themselves are standardized to ensure strict and transparent.
  • Standardized information for each thin client, with details of the firmware, its operating system version (Linux, Windows etc ...) and additional functions for each thin client available
  • Detailed information on such as frame rates for the exams are passed required the particularities of the verification tests; allowing customers to assess whether further tests are needed because they have requirements on the standardized tests.
  • Improved search capabilities, so users can quickly pull a list of thin client options upwards, that meet their needs.

If you are planning a Citrix infrastructure, you often have to choose an endpoint that can access the remote desktops and applications, the Citrix functionalities mate. been easy with the three HDX-level tests for thin clients and the Citrix Ready market interface Ideally, this should. However, the information was not known and only a few diehard Citrix users read by reviewing what the HDX levels mean to find out, actually leads (eg. HDX Ready, HDX Premium and HDX 3D Pro).

What's new?

You can obtain the new product category page information about thin clients tailored. We have three sections, each marked with the most important messages that actually mean HDX Ready, HDX Premium and HDX 3D Pro. This is supposed to be at a high level, suitable for use planning.

No access to sensitive data; No Broad Network Access -

There are some media reports recently about a hack of the Citrix corporate network have been that originated with a threat actors access to a Citrix marketing content management server to win. I want our customers to solve this problem, and to clarify some elements of the industry.

A threat actor has said he used to access a single server obtained content for the stage GoTo family of web sites, a server for easy access to website content and marketing materials for campaign configured. The Content Management Server under question contained no customer, employee or other sensitive or confidential information.

Although the content management server allows anonymous access to content, not enough to write anonymous access metadata changes to production. claims that a threat actor production Web could change site content, web server configurations, or to access internal Citrix Systems are not the facts. The server has been reconfigured and administrative passwords have been changed.

I would also like to clarify some confusion regarding Share File. While in this opposite outwardly content management system, identifies the threat actor a password to an account Share File that reveals images and other marketing materials previously contained. Related, identifies the threat actor token an application programming interface for the read-only rights to this File Share Account. re not a customer, employee or other sensitive or confidential information has been exposed, and this old, unused Share File account has been disabled and the read-only API key to this revoked account.

Finally we have no evidence that this threat has accessed actor systems other than the single content management server. we the environment for unauthorized access and changes will continue to monitor.

Thanks,

Stan Black

A receiver for Skype for Business: It's as Easy as Pie -

Last month, Citrix and Microsoft has a new joint solution for the provision of Skype for businesses of XenApp and XenDesktop, and the response from the market is that this is exactly what have been waiting for our joint customers a long time.

The new "v2 architecture" of HDX RealTime Optimization Pack provides a truly native UI experience, while the scalability of the server is maintained, and it is now the only solution of a virtualized workstation for the provision of Skype for Business -Microsoft supported.

BradA tweet re HDX RTOP

This month, as promised-we've made it even easier to adopt the new solution by a new Receiver for Windows package that the HDX RealTime Media Engine (RTME) includes. A download, install.

The new software suite brings Citrix Receiver 4.4 and RealTime Media Engine 2.0 (a receiver plug-in) in a single package that is ideal for BYOD users and at-home workers. Until now adopters unmanaged Windows devices to first download and install Citrix Receiver and repeat the process for the RTME MSI. In response to numerous customer requests, we have now simplified this by a single download delivery and to install, update separately, while maintaining the flexibility either component.

Conference Calling with Skype for Business -

Based on the questions that I have received, it seems like Skype is a pretty big deal for businesses. So, let us look at another question that I received in relation to the Citrix RealTime Optimization Pack for Skype for Business recently:

How does the 3-way call

with? Skype for businesses to create a 3-way (or more) to do conference call, you must have implemented the Skype for Business Audio-Video Conferencing Server in your Skype deployment. After initiating a call by communicating via SIP to the Skype server, all parties in a call have their voice / video (SRTP) by the conference server.

In a native RDS / VDI deployment that does NOT Citrix RealTime Optimization Pack for Skype for business, the media need extra network hops through (for simplicity include I have the Skype for Business Server removes that is still required for the initialization of the session.)

without

As you can see, for the user, the environment with access a virtual desktop, the Skype for Business client inside the virtual desktop (VDA) is installed. Although this deployment model works, it makes more stress put on your RDS / VDI infrastructure, as we explained in the previous blog.

Now, compare SRTP way when we implement the Citrix RealTime Optimization Pack for Skype for Business.

Opt3way

from the perspective of users, followed by the voice and video data. A much more direct route that mimic the traditional PC experience And the impact on the RDS / VDI infrastructure is significantly reduced, as the media is processed on the endpoints.

The New Business Workspace: Why #EveryoneUsesCitrix -

Let's talk about workspaces. Over the years the concept has changed. We named virtual work, mobile workspaces and now, digital workspaces, but all this talk about the same idea. It is the transition from the traditional business desktop to the new business must workplace with work applications and data accessible to people from any device.

A shift in work areas: real business impact

Citrix customers see this shift to workspaces as digital business transformation driving;. to enable people to work better, on their terms, is driving significant and immediate improvements in employee productivity and collaboration. Empowering people "on site" may be mobile by 30 percent to reduce real estate costs and reduce staff retention costs, because people are much more satisfied. Protecting applications and data rather than devices can also improve the safety and risk detection and response. The impact on the business of working areas is real.

leadership in digital workspaces

At Citrix, we understand the importance of the work area, long before it became the latest hot industry term. In fact, we have the first solution in the industry for workspaces, Citrix Workspace Suite, almost two years ago in 2014 customers told us that they one safe option requires Windows Mobile, Web and SaaS applications and to provide data to tablets, laptops, desktops and smartphones.

We sure this digital business desktop solution humans has provided all the resources available for their office need on-the-go.

After imagine how ridiculous it would be if you could only use certain applications and access to a subset of your files or can not print documents for clients. If something is missing crucial you have to go back even in the office and your old business desktop, wasted time, and defeats the purpose of core business mobility completely. But with rival workplace offerings, these are the trade-offs they make exactly force you why #EveryoneUsesCitrix.

All are interconnected around you -. Not only your applications and data, but your home, car and office

apps are developed by OS-specific native apps to consumer mobile applications to web applications. You are now on the Internet of Things develops intelligent devices and portable devices. The next wave of opportunity is to port and all this automation "apps." Add identity and location / proximity to the equation, and the experience is even more magical.

data also further developed by in is available in self-contained native applications on client-server applications to Web applications and APIs now is available on request. The data is streaming now long between applications and smart / portable devices in real time, all day and all night. The days of manual data entry have disappeared. The sensors are now streaming data in multiple protocols to the cloud and local mesh networks with the speed of light (or RF). It is more important than ever that these applications and data are safely delivered at any time and any place.

This new 50 billion intelligent devices are still smarter than the first wave of IoT devices. Machine learning algorithms are now able to predict your next move before you have to turn on the light switch time. Soon these devices are contextually apart and your desired interactions are aware. We are moving into the era of autonomic computing -. Aged enchanted experience

Delete Local user profile folders on servers storefront -

How many of you might be aware of the Citrix Storefront authentication service provides an option for users to change their passwords when they expire. By default this option is disabled if the authentication service is created that will be modified by users to prevent their passwords if the passwords are expired.

If you decide to allow for Web cookies in Citrix Receiver, keep in mind that Storefront created to examine a local user profile, if a user's password is about to expire. Thus space on the local hard drive of the storefront server is required sufficient.

you. Documentation for more information on configuring the Storefront authentication service

to the space used by local profiles on the local hard drive of the storefront server to free, I have created a script to check the local profile folder, which can be used and to delete. , the script is the user profile parent folder and try to retrieve user profiles that are not in use to erase. In addition, you can specify custom user profile folders that should not be deleted

. Note: The Win32 class that I use to query the profile folder is not set to "All users touch", and "Standard", so you do not you will not need to specify within the account list of profiles to delete. Other profiles, such as the Administrator profile must be specified

Run to delete the script as a scheduled task, these local profiles periodically

Note: .. I'm a big fan of a central configuration. Therefore, I recommend the Group Policy using the clean-up to configure. To deploy the script to the storefront server, I pull Group Policy settings (GPP). This ensures that each server downloads the latest version of the script from a central share. The task scheduler is configured by GPP and to enable easy modification. Therefore, the script can be run as Local System Group Policy Settings for Scheduled Task management support, without specifying a password. Microsoft removed this feature for security.

You can find an example of how the GPP to configure in my blog staggered restarts for FMA Server OS VDAS covers.

The script can be downloaded.! here

Consumerization is the conversion quickly business and IT models. Together in relationship, as the company continues an increase in staying here to see your own device to bring (BYOD) movement that they need, over any network their employees with secure, mobile access to applications and data on any device available deliver.

as serving "invisible middleman" Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) are IT and employees the tools and confidence they need only to say yes to the mobility of workers.

With employees empower the way to work and collaborate, they prefer as a baseline (polynuclear trend today for organizations BYOD policy to operate to let people use their own personal computers and mobile devices for work), Citrix ago recently customers queried the EMM in the cloud with XenMobile last year in use. Comprehensive insight can be seen in this infographic

Some of the most important results are :.

Significantly driving for consumerization human productivity, the iOS mobile operating system remains king of the mobile platform in the enterprise global workforce.

iOS the platform of choice

the BYOD phenomenon has created a new way for people to make their own decisions about the mobile hardware and software, which they use for business purposes.

In addition, cloud computing and related SaaS applications have new ways for employees and entire departments to easily bypass internal IT. The advantage: Our survey shows a 255 percent increase in mobile users per company provided (2014-2015), an indicator that as more users are managed by IT teams, it is otherwise not available to users what they need therefore certainly need to provide access to people and data applications for their work, to do no matter where they are or what device they use.

provides EMM tangible economic benefits, including improved user productivity Manage reduced cost of mobile devices and applications and recoup EMM investment in 12 months or less!

In addition, some customers put in their words (see below), such as mobile productivity is no longer a luxury, companies need to make to move beyond the limits of a fixed location and standard PCs new freedom and flexibility in the way how people work. Most importantly, that mobility can be realized to provide the value of their companies.

Mobility BYOD

For the same reason, we know that business value of mobility to maximize has its challenges, which is why we designed XenMobile as complete EMM solution aligned to ensure mobility, increase productivity mobilize business processes and optimize mobile management. Especially XenMobile improves the user experience on BYOD or company to lose device without the risk of valuable corporate data.

As mobility remains the top priority for organizations, we are for companies the risks and opportunities continue surveying data underlines ES. Thus remain for more insight (in future blogs!) Matched affect companies in the latest trends mobility.

[Insert your app name here] ... provided by Citrix HDX -

HDX and Citrix Receiver have for Citrix as compared to a few crown jewels. They represent the core technologies that let IT deliver applications and desktops with superior user experience

When we think about the applications that the use of receiver (and in particular the mobile receiver) drive, some who immediately come to mind are :. access

  1. Enable mobile workers Apps, wherever they are
  2. Windows applications deliver that might otherwise be difficult , write native of mobile devices (there are millions of Windows apps out there)
  3. centrally keep sensitive application data managed and secured, especially in connection with the mobility of workers

These applications resonant well with customers for years. Citrix Receiver be downloaded by hundreds of thousands of users monthly .

What if we could help gain access to their critical Windows applications even more users? as we think about how to enhance the value contributions described above, we notice a recurring theme on App Delivery: mobility. Today I wanted your thoughts on a proposal received the HDX SDK to offer to more expand native Windows application delivery to iOS and Android devices and HTML5 browsers.

What's HDX SDK?

It is to start a software development kit (SDK), the customers, independent software vendors (ISVs) and other partners enables XenApp or XenDesktop session within their own native mobile app without Citrix Receiver installed on their iOS or Android device. She adds, to start the "HDX Engine" mobile for your business applications to give them the opportunity ICA files and to support the full HDX user experience.

What is the value of HDX SDK?

There a number of possible value propositions associated with HDX SDK.

  1. The ability to traditional desktop applications "mobilize", especially when it challenges them for mobile operating systems to rewrite
  2. The flexibility of iOS app who buy your customers from the App Store to build a constitute the usual end-user . Imagine WWCo Corporation created an iOS app for the brand 'WWCoApp' which is well known for its staff and partners. Users can launch XenApp or XenDesktop sessions, without ever leaving the WWCoApp interface. Every native app can be powered by HDX power.
  3. The ability to control the distribution, updates and adaptations the iOS app. Often the Citrix Receiver for iOS or Android app to app stores for users to download before IT administrators are willing to support them. Bundling HDX SDK in your own native iOS app puts you firmly in control of when and how users access the latest version.
  4. The flexibility to create a hybrid app, which is part native and part XenApp.
  5. Eliminates the need for the user a separate Citrix Receiver for iOS or Android to download.
  6. to access detailed analyzes how your application is used, use tools such Crashlytics.

Who should use HDX SDK?

  1. customer who want to customize the brand experience for Receiver for iOS or Android
  2. ISVs , who want their own mobile app brand, during a XenApp or XenDesktop session to deliver

We love to hear your opinion

Let's get a conversation going ...

  1. What do you think? Provides this value for you?
  2. What would you do with an HDX SDK? How would you use it?
  3. Would this help you expand your traditional Windows Mobile Apps?

How to start?

If you want access to more information about the HDX SDK, please complete this short form and we will consider your request.
