CCA Citrix ADC & Gateway Configuration 2

Question 1

What is the primary purpose of the Content Switching feature in Citrix ADC?

Accepted Answer

Routing client requests to different backend server pools based on URL, host header, or other content attributes

Answer

Content Switching directs incoming requests to different load-balancing virtual servers (and their associated server pools) based on traffic attributes such as URL path, host header, or HTTP method.

Question 2

Which authentication protocol is most commonly integrated with Citrix Gateway to enable RADIUS-based multi-factor authentication?

Accepted Answer

RADIUS

Answer

RADIUS is the standard protocol used to integrate Citrix Gateway with MFA solutions such as RSA SecurID, Duo, and Google Authenticator, allowing a second authentication factor to be required.

Question 3

What does GSLB stand for in the context of Citrix ADC, and what is its primary use case?

Accepted Answer

Global Server Load Balancing — distributing traffic across geographically dispersed data centers

Answer

GSLB (Global Server Load Balancing) uses DNS-based load balancing to direct client requests to the most appropriate data center based on factors such as proximity, load, or health.

Question 4

In Citrix ADC, what distinguishes a Service Group from individual Services?

Accepted Answer

Service Groups allow members to be added or removed dynamically without modifying the virtual server binding

Answer

Service Groups simplify management by allowing administrators to add, remove, or autoscale backend servers within the group without needing to rebind each Service individually to the virtual server.

Question 5

What is the function of a Session Policy and its associated Session Profile in Citrix Gateway?

Accepted Answer

To define per-user or per-group session parameters such as idle timeout, split tunneling, and client choices

Answer

Session Policies evaluate conditions (e.g., user group membership or client endpoint) and apply Session Profiles that define settings like idle timeout, split tunneling mode, and whether Citrix Workspace app or clientless access is used.
