Citrix iApp and WI

I setup Citrix with the latest iApp and in the LTM (using APM). The documentation says that one of the benefits is the WI server is no longer needed. How can I truly verify in this setup that the WI is not being accessed\used (without removing the WI). Thanks.

    Do you have the iApp set to "Yes, proxy ICA traffic and authenticate users with the BIG-IP"? If so, then it should present a webtop to end users when they connect. If you configured XML brokers (ie: farm members with the XML service installed) then the user should be presented with their published applications.

     

    I recommend setting up a development instance of the iApp, on different IPs so as not to conflict with your WI servers.

     

    A very basic setup will probably only take about 30 minutes.

    Yes, thats exactly what I did. I did choose "Yes, proxy ICA traffic and authenticate users with the BIG-IP" and am presented with the F5 login interface (webtop). Also I configured th exml brokers and see my published apps. I just wanted to "see it" under the hood to make sure.

     

    Also, I know the initial login tot he webtop is ssl, but I though the proxying (internal citrix traffic from external session) was not, is it? Thanks.
