Hello,

I have to install SSL certificates on Citrix.

We have two servers (farm with load balancing under XPe FR3).

Hence my question is: do we have to buy one SSL certificate or two SSL certificates?

Thank you


 
With ssl relay, the 1494 traffic is transformed into 443, and encrypted to ssl taffic. That would mean port 443 open on the firewall. That would require a cert and a public ip per server.

With NFuse, you would just setup an https nfuse site, and after starting the actual session, it would revert to citrix security, instead of ssl security.
It would require 1 cert for wi, and a public ip for every server.

With a WI/CSG setup, all traffic is tunneled through the CSG, by using ssl. When using the new CSG 2.0, you would only need 1 cert and 1 public ip for the setup.
