asked on

CAG - Web interface - best option.

Hi all,

I have a Citrix Access Gateway in production. I have been asked to configure a Citrix web interface so that external user can logon securely and use published apps.

I  have created a citrix web interface site on a server in the dmz. My plan was to create a certificate on the site and then give a external address so that users could access the site externally.

But, as i already CAG should i not be using this to authenticate the users? if there anyway the cag can be tied in the the portal page?

help would be appreciated

Should i be using the CAG for authenticating the users and then pointing the to the website?

The web server does not need to be in the DMZ. you Access Gateway has 2 NICs that you can use to span the External and internal networks. this will allow the CAG to point to an internal Web interface to do authentication.  Here are some good learning points.

Thanks

I have now slightly changed the setup here in order to get this working, as follows

Configured a web interface on the LAN.
CAG on the DMZ.
WI v4.5
CAG standard ed. 4.5.5

I am now trying to forward credentials used at the CAG portal page to logn the users directly onto the WI. I have followed all the steps on the KB: http://support.citrix.com/article/ctx106202

To test this im am connecting to the CAG FQDN and selecting connect. This then runs the clients and prompts for the user credentials. Once i put credentials in i want it to rediect to the WI but its not, any ideas what i may have missed out?

Hi thanks for getting back

 Im not sure whether this is whats required:

I just need the users to redirected to the WI after they have logged into the CAG portal page. At the moment the portal page is just allowing users to connect to the gatway, i need them to be redirected to the WI without having to browse to the WI address manually??


That make sense?
