Where is the "settings" functionality for APM Citrix?

In the Citrix Netscaler there is a section where the user can configure the behavior of the Citrix connection ie: Settings Cancel Save General Configure settings that are applied across the whole...

Hi Benjamin,

 

First of all, I believe you refer to Citrix Web Interface site settings rather than Netscaler. Netscaler does not have these settings.

 

The answer depends on how you use APM. You can use APM in the following two modes:

 

  1. APM integrates with Web Interface. In this mode you configure the settings in the same place - at Web Interface. All settings are supported.
  2. APM replaces Web Interface. In this mode APM either uses pre-configured settings or takes settings from Citrix XML Brokers.

In the latter case:

 

  • Logoff behavior. As a security device, APM always disconnects user's sessions when user logs out from APM
  • Reconnect button. There is no reconnect button on APM Webtop (APM-hosted web site that replaces Citrix Web Interface site). User just needs to start any application on APM Webtop and his disconnected applications will be reconnected.
  • Native Client is used by default unless you configure APM to use HTML5 client. APM Webtop does Automatic Client Detection similar to Web Intrface
  • Window size. APM always uses seamless as the de-facto best user-experience option.
  • APM also supports custom settings that you can configure via Citrix resource.
