Using Raspberry Pi as a Supported Thin Client on Citrix with ThinLinX

Of course, we already have in mind that Citrix supports the use of a Raspberry Pi (30€) to use as a thin client; with HDX Ready and being able to optimize the multimedia layer and download its heavy graphics acceleration to the device. In this document we will see how ThinLinX works, an OS that simply transforms a Raspberry Pi into a manageable thinclient, whether for Citrix XenApp or XenDesktop, VMware View, Microsoft RDS…

Citrix NetScaler Unified Gateway

Today I want to share with you a document by Oscar Mas, where he is going to show us a functionality of NetScaler systems that can be very useful for publishing access to shared resources, Websites, etc.... What we do is publish something that is on our network and deliver the encrypted information through our NetScaler. We could also publish our XenApp 6.X/7.X through this same access. In this case, what I am going to publish is access to a well-known monitoring system, which is called Zabbix through a NetScaler.

Citrix NetScaler integration with SCOM 2012 R2

I leave you a piece of Oscar Mas's document, We hope you are interested! One of the most important things in any system we implement, is the monitoring of said system. Microsoft and Citrix, give us the possibility to monitor our systems, using the System Center Operations Manager tool, better known as SCOM.

Using Citrix AppDisk

I'm going to leave you a post with one of the great novelties that the version has brought us 7.8 from Citrix!!! We now have the ability to add application layers to OS base images, both Desktop and Server, so we can have a base image and customize them with different layers of applications to deliver them to different departments. Let's go, A marvel, We will be able to add as many layers of applications as we are interested in, or update them individually and only manage a base image!

Citrix NetScaler EPA (End Point Analysis)

Very good! I leave you with a magnificent post by our dear Oscar Mas! One of the new features that came out with the firmware version 10.5 NetScaler, is the possibility of scanning the client that wants to connect to our Citrix infrastructure and based on pre-established criteria, give you access or be denied access. This functionality is known as EPA (End Point Analysis). This article, you want to show the steps required to be able to configure EPA (End Point Analysis), with a very simple example. It must be taken into account, that this system only works with Windows and MAC-based operating systems.

The first thing we will do is link the two NetScalers and then join them, so that in the event of a fall of one of the two, the other continues to work.
