Smart Access Guide for NetScaler Gateway, StoreFront and XenDesktop

You can configure EPA Policies on Netscaler to check the configurations on the Client Device (ie Domain Membership)

Check Domain Membership Example :

  • Clear ICA Only checkbox on Netscaler Gateway Virtual Server > Basic Settings (Enables Smart Access)
  • Be sure to enable Callback on Storefront > Netscaler Settings.
  • Enable TrustXML on DDC 
  • Create two PreAuthentication Policies, one for Domain_Joined, one for Domain_Not_Joined and bind these policies to Netscaler Gateway Virtual Server.
    Domain Joined : CLIENT.SYSTEM('DOMAIN_SUFFIX_anyof_workspacelab.com[COMMENT: Domain check]') EXISTS
    Domain NOT Joined : CLIENT.SYSTEM('DOMAIN_SUFFIX_anyof_workspacelab.com[COMMENT: Domain check]') NOTEXISTS
  • On DDC, edit Delivery Group Properties > Access Policy > Enable all checkboxes > Farm Name = Netscaler Gateway Virtual Server Name, Filter = Domain_Joined (this will filter the resources on the delivery group only to Domain Joined Computers)

You can use the Smart Access policies on the Citrix Policy Filters either.
