Citrix Bookmarks

For Citrix bookmarks, you can select the following options:

• Disable client detection by Citrix server check box is selected by default. Clear the selection of Disable client detection by Citrix server to enable client detection when using Citrix Bookmarks. Note that this feature is compatible with Citrix XenAPP 5.0 or later.
• Select the HTTPS Mode check box to use a secure Citrix connection.
• Select Always use specified Citrix ICA Server to explicitly specify the Citrix ICA Server Address for the Citrix ICA Session. By default, the Bookmark uses the information provided in the ICA configuration on the Citrix server.
  • Smart: Allows the firmware to decide which mode to launch on the client.

    

    When creating a new unified bookmark, Smart is selected by default. Auto-detection is processed using bookmark-specific default modes while launching the bookmark.

  • Manual: Provides options to configure the modes, their priorities, and the choose method. At least one mode should be enabled in the selection box.

    

    The launch sequence is as follows: HTML5 and Native. Selecting Manual allows you to change, enable, or disable the launch methods. If you select Native to launch the Citrix bookmark, then the SMA Connect Agent launches the Citrix Receiver on the local machine to do the Citrix connection. Both should be installed before choosing Native. If you choose to run as HTML5, the Citrix HTML5 client is used to view the Citrix3 backend host.

    The up and down arrows are used to adjust the launch priority. Fork and tick are used to disable or enable the modes. Disabled modes are put at the bottom of the list with a gray font color.

    The Choose during Launch option is not enabled by default under the Manual mode. In this setting, while launching the bookmark, the first available mode in the configured list is run at once after auto-detection.

    After the Choose during Launch option is enabled, while launching the unified bookmark, if there are multiple modes available for the client, a menu is provided from which you can choose within a five second count-down. When only one mode is available, the bookmark is also run immediately.

    

    If the Remember my choice option is selected during the launch time, the selected mode is remembered through a cookie.

    That means, when launching the bookmark thereafter, the remembered mode is run directly within two seconds. Clicking anywhere in the HTML can 'forget' the remembered mode so you can re-choose.

    

    Editing or deleting the bookmark in the same browser can also reset the remembered mode.

    When no modes are able to run on the client with the configuration, the following notice appears.

    

• Optionally select HTTPS Mode to use HTTPS to securely access the Citrix Portal.
• Select Always use specified Citrix ICA Server to explicitly specify the Citrix ICA Server Address for the Citrix ICA Session. By default, the Bookmark uses the information provided in the ICA configuration on the Citrix server.
