I am trying to configure remote access for a Citrix Access Essentials installed on my network for internet access. I can get to the published application on the Citrix server within my network. I have not been able to get to the Citrix server from the outside. I have two Windows 2003 servers on the network. The one server has exchange server installed, the second server has Citrix Access Essentials installed. The server that has exchange on it needs to have port 443 traffic directed to it. I also have to redirect traffic for port 443 for the Citrix server. The network is behind a hardware firewall. How do I direct traffic from port 443 to both servers. I have a Snapgear router/switch as my firewall.

Hardware-based firewalls provide more sophisticated protection for inbound and outbound traffic than the simple Windows software firewall or the basic NAT firewalls found in routers. These devices implement techniques such as stateful packet inspection, deep packet inspection, and content filtering; and may include built-in antivirus and anti-malware protection.

Citrix is the synonym for the virtualization and application infrastructure systems developed by the company of the same name. Main areas are application virtualization, Software-As-A-Service (SaaS), cloud-computing and networking. The two most well-known are Citrix XenApp or Citrix CloudPlatform.

A switch is a device that filters and forwards packets of data between LAN segments. Switches operate at the data link layer or the network layer of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Reference Model and therefore support any packet protocol. LANs that use switches to join segments are called switched LANs or, in the case of Ethernet networks, switched Ethernet LANs. A hub is a connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used to connect segments of a LAN. A hub contains multiple ports; when a packet arrives at one port, it is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets.
