	About Configuration Parameters

Field	Value

management.network.cidr	A CIDR that describes the network that the
	management CIDRs reside on. This variable
	must be set for deployments that use vSphere. It
	is recommended to be set for other deployments
	as well. Example: 192.168.3.0/24.

xen.setup.multipath	For XenServer nodes, this is a true/false variable
	that instructs CloudStack to enable iSCSI
	multipath on the XenServer Hosts when they are
	added. This defaults to false. Set it to true if you
	would like CloudStack to enable multipath.
	If this is true for a NFS-based deployment
	multipath will still be enabled on the XenServer
	host. However, this does not impact NFS
	operation and is harmless.

secstorage.allowed.internal.sites	This is used to protect your internal network
	from rogue attempts to download arbitrary files
	using the template download feature. This is a
	comma-separated list of CIDRs. If a requested
	URL matches any of these CIDRs the Secondary
	Storage VM will use the private network interface
	to fetch the URL. Other URLs will go through
	the public interface. We suggest you set this
	to 1 or 2 hardened internal machines where
	you keep your templates. For example, set it to
	192.168.1.66/32.

use.local.storage	Determines whether CloudStack will use storage
	that is local to the Host for data disks, templates,
	and snapshots. By default CloudStack will not
	use this storage. You should change this to
	true if you want to use local storage and you
	understand the reliability and feature drawbacks
	to choosing local storage.

host	This is the IP address of the Management
	Server. If you are using multiple Management
	Servers you should enter a load balanced IP
	address that is reachable via the private network.

default.page.size	Maximum number of items per page that can be
	returned by a CloudStack API command. The
	limit applies at the cloud level and can vary from
	cloud to cloud. You can override this with a lower
	value on a particular API call by using the page
	and page size API command parameters. For
	more information, see the Developer's Guide.
	Default: 500.

ha.tag	The label you want to use throughout the cloud
	to designate certain hosts as dedicated HA
	hosts. These hosts will be used only for HA-
	enabled VMs that are restarting due to the failure
	of another host. For example, you could set this

4.2 specifications

Citrix Systems, a leading provider of virtualization solutions and cloud computing technologies, released version 4.2 of its popular software, Citrix XenApp, which was previously known as Presentation Server. This version marked a significant evolution in providing users with remote access to applications and desktops, emphasizing simplicity, performance, and security.

One of the standout features of Citrix XenApp 4.2 is its improved application streaming capabilities. This technology allows applications to be delivered to users in real-time, reducing the need for extensive local installations and enhancing the user experience. With application streaming, administrators can efficiently manage applications on a central server while ensuring that users have immediate access to the necessary tools.

Another highlight of this version is the enhanced security measures put in place to protect sensitive data. Citrix XenApp 4.2 includes support for SSL encryption, providing a secure communication channel for data transmitted between the server and clients. This is particularly crucial for businesses that need to comply with strict data protection regulations. Additionally, the integration of endpoint security features ensures that unauthorized access to applications is minimized.

Performance enhancements are also a critical focus in this release. Citrix optimized the delivery of applications over various network conditions, ensuring that users experience minimal latency regardless of their location. This was achieved through the incorporation of SmartAccess and SmartControl technologies, which allow administrators to set policies based on user roles, device types, and network conditions. This level of granularity enables organization-wide security without compromising on usability.

The user experience was further improved with a revamped interface, making it easier for end-users to access their applications and data. Simplified menus, clear navigation paths, and the ability to customize user settings contributed to a more efficient workflow, allowing users to focus on their tasks rather than struggling with the software.

Finally, Citrix XenApp 4.2 was designed to be highly scalable. Organizations of all sizes could deploy this solution to deliver applications efficiently, adapting to their specific needs as their user base grows or changes. This flexibility is crucial for businesses looking to future-proof their IT investments while maintaining optimal performance.

In summary, Citrix XenApp 4.2 stands out with its enhanced application streaming, robust security features, improved performance under varying conditions, user-friendly interface, and scalability, making it an ideal choice for organizations seeking to leverage virtualization for remote access to applications and desktops.
