9. Problems with XenApp Local and Remote Access Complexity without extensibility Backend config changes for remote use Auth after the gateway Separate config/servers for remote and LAN access Config Req’d Config Req’d NetScaler + Access Gateway Web Interface Site + STA Citrix Servers Directory
10. XenApp – Simplified with Access Policy Manager APM+LTM = Simple, Secure, Versatile No backend configuration changes Single policy for Web ICA or Receiver Client Auth BEFORE the apps Front-end multiple applications APM + LTM Web Interface Site Citrix Servers Directory
11. BIG-IP Access Policy Manager Scale application access and enhance simplicity: Enhance Remote Desktops Highly scalable, flexible platform options Drive capital and operational savings Support local and remote application access
Editor's Notes
Layer with traffic management, web acceleration, web application security, and WAN optimizationUsers demand access to applications, and the consumerization of IT means that endpoints are often no longer controlled by IT. iPads, iPhones, Android, personal laptops, are all pushing their way into the enterprise, and causing support headaches and security risks.<click>BIG-IP APM ties in to your existing methods of authentication, and allows rich policy for authorization, based on user, endpoint inspection and more.Allow only secured devices, or restrict access to a specific set of applications from others, the choice is yours, because regardless of network, or device, APM puts IT back in control of application access.
Citrix Solution = Complex SolutionSTA, web interface server, app server, access GWRemote access requires backend configSeparate config/servers for remote and LAN accessComplex troubleshooting
Replacing Access Gateway with APM+LTM means no more STA, auth is done in one place, with no backend configuration changes, and a single policy for Remote or LAN users, regardless of client access type (web or received client!)
