Integrating the Client with the Secure Gateway or SSL
Relay
You can integrate the client with the Citrix Secure Gateway or an SSL Relay
service. The client supports both SSL and TLS protocols:
SSL provides strong encryption to increase the privacy of your connections
and certificate-based server authentication to ensure that the server you are
connecting to is a genuine server.
TLS is the latest, standardized, version of the SSL protocol. Because there
are only minor technical differences between SSL Version 3.0 and TLS
Version 1.0, they are functionally equivalent.
The Secure Gateway
If you are using the server in SSL Relay mode, the Secure Gateway functions as a
proxy server. You must configure the client to use both the fully qualified domain
name (FQDN) and port number of the Secure Gateway server. (For further
details, see the Secure Gateway for Windows Administrator’s Guide.)
The FQDN of the Secure Gateway server must list the following components in
sequence:
Host name
Intermediate domain
Top-level domain
For example, my_computer.my_company.com is an FQDN because it lists, in
sequence, a host name (my_computer), an intermediate domain (my_company),
and a top-level domain (com). The combination of intermediate and top-level
domains (my_company.com) is generally referred to as the domain name.
You can configure the Secure Gateway settings only if you already chose SSL/
TLS+HTTPS. See “Identifying a Desktop or Application to Connect to” on page
24.
