Citrix iApp
I have a current production Citrix farm working fine. I just installed the F5 in the DMZ and trying to setup a test scenario for Citrix to pass through it. I've read through documentation but still need assistance. In Testing: I have external requests coming through the firewall to the F5 in the DMZ. On the F5 I used the Citrix XenApp Template that creates the Virtual Servers for the Web Interface and XML Broker. I did not choose SSL encryption and chose "no" when asked if the Citrix XenApp servers have a route back through the BIG-IP system (as recommended in the documentation). I created the two pools with the correct ip's and everything else.
On the WI server, in Citrix Web Management I created a new site also in IIS for the test.
In the F5 the pool for the Citrix_wi_Pool and Citrix_xmlb_Pool had the nodes down according to the Citrix_http_wi_base_monitor health monitor. After a lot of troubleshooting I removed the Citrix_http_wi_base_monitor and added http - now in the F5 all is green. (not saying that will be a permanent solution, but for now at least).
From externally when I go to the test url I reach only the Welcome IIS page. How come I cannot connect to the Citrix Xenapp page? Thanks.
