peedje,

 

It seems to me that you may have some ports not open between your DMZ and your view desktops. This document (beginning page 19; https://pubs.vmware.com/view-52/top...curity.pdf) summarizes the necessary firewall port configuration. As a point of reference I've attached a pdf of my configuration (generated by the iapp). We have all features of the VMware View 5.2 working internally and externally (I've attached the external config). This does not include the Blast Gateway. The iapp does not include that. For that you will need to create a new virtual server on the F5 for port 8443 and leave everything default except Source Address Translation (choose Auto Map) and make sure Port and Address Translation is checked (at least this is what I had to do to get it working). Hope this helps.
