Customizing the Citrix Netscaler portal
Something you know I like, that it costs nothing and is very grateful especially by VIP users… is nothing more than what we will see in this post, which is how to customize the access portal to our organization from the outside! That is, we will customize the Citrix NetScaler portal 12 with our company logo, Corporate colors and backgrounds!
After logging into our NetScaler 12.0, We're going to “NetScaler Gateway” > “Portal Themes”, we are going to create a fully custom corporate portal, Click on “Add”,
We give the song a name in “Theme Name”, and select a base template in “Template Theme”, we select the X1 that will be the one we base ourselves on in this document to make a quick example! Click on “OK”,
Now, All that remains is to indicate the colors we want for this first screen, which will be the main page where users' resources will be viewed, if you want to clarify what each field is, Click on “Help Legend”,
Here we will see a small help of each field that we can customize,
Below we will have more fields that we can customize, these correspond to the home page, to Logon and equally, If we click on “Help Legend” We'll have more help…
In this help panel we will also be able to understand what corresponds to each field so that we can customize and change both its colors and images or logos.
After pressing “OK” We continue with the wizard and it will ask us for a predetermined language, Select the Spanish from the combo and click on “OK” To follow!
In the right panel, you will have the possibility to change the text or add a custom one that you want! And if we want to assign this topic to a Virtual Server such as our NetScaler Gateway, click on “Click to Bind and View Configured Theme”,
We are looking for our NetScaler Gateway Server, since “VPN”, Select it and click on “Bind and Preview” to assign it right now!
List, we will see a Preview panel with the final result of the portal, we can access our access portal if we want and verify that everything looks as we want! Now we just need to have some hand and good taste to make this access a friendlier portal for our end users.
And of course, let's not forget to save the NetScaler configuration!
