Configuring the Web Interface

To configure the Web interface, you create a Web interface site and bind one or more XenApp or XenDesktop farms to it. You then configure the Web interface to work behind an HTTP or an HTTPS virtual server or Citrix Access Gateway™.

The following access methods are available for setting up Web interface sites:

wDirect Mode. You create an HTTP or an HTTPS virtual server on the NetScaler appliance and bind the Web interface service, running on port 8080 of the NetScaler appliance, to the virtual server. Clients on the LAN use the virtual server IP address to access the Web interface. When using this access method, the URL format for the Web interface site is as follows:

<HTTP or HTTPS>://<HTTP or HTTPS vserver IP address>:<vserver port number>/<Web Interface site path>
