Support for EDT in HDX insight
Citrix Application Delivery Management (ADM) now supports enlightened data transport (EDT) for displaying analytics for HDX Insight. That is, ADM now supports both UDP and TCP protocol. EDT support for Citrix Gateway ensures a high definition in-session user experience of virtual desktops for users running Citrix Workspace.
HDX Insight now displays the number of EDT sessions and non-EDT sessions as part of the active sessions report. The Users table displays a detailed report of all the users in the system. The table shows metrics such as WAN latency, DC latency, retransmits, RTOs and some of these metrics are not available for users who do have EDT sessions as they are calculated from the TCP stack currently. Therefore, they appear as “NA”.
A new donut chart has been introduced to allow you to see bandwidth consumed by the user and also the total number of bytes based on the type of protocol used by the users.
Note
EDT in HDX Insight is supported on Citrix ADM from release 12.1 build 50.28 and is available on ADC instances from release 12.1 build 49.23.

Instance view reports and metrics
The reports and metrics in the instance view are focused on the Citrix ADC instances.
To navigate to the Instance view:
Log on to your Citrix ADM using a supported web browser.
Navigate to Analytics > HDX Insight > Instances.
Instance view reports and metrics consist of the following sections:
Instance summary view
This view is called the summary view as it shows the reports for all the Citrix ADC instances that are added to Citrix ADM.
All the below metrics/reports, unless explicitly mentioned will have the values corresponding to them for the selected time period.
Instance bar graph
| This graph displays the instance vs the Total Session Launch count | Total Apps which can be selected from the list on the top right on the graph canvas. |
Instance/Active instances summary report
| Metrics | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | Host name of the Citrix ADC instance. |
| IP Address | NetScaler IP address. |
| Total Session Launch count | Total number of unique user sessions created during a given time interval. |
| Total Apps | Total number of unique applications launched during a given time interval. |
| Type | N/A |
Threshold report
Threshold report represents the count of thresholds breached where the entity is selected as Instance in the selected period. For more information, see how to create thresholds.
Skipped flows
A skipped flow is a record which skipped parsing ICA connection. This can occur due to multiple reasons like using unsupported Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops versions, unsupported version of workspace or workspace type and so on This table shows the IP address and the skipped flow count. These workspaces may not be part of whitelisted workspaces. Hence these sessions are skipped from monitoring.
World view
The World Map view in HDX insight allows the administrators to view the historical and active users details from a geographical point of view. The administrators can have a World view of the system, drill-down to a particular country and further into cities as well by simply clicking the region. The administrators can further drill down to view information by city and state. From Citrix ADM version 12.0 and later, you can drill down to users connected from a Geo location.
The following details can be viewed on the World Map in HDX insight, and the density of each metric is displayed in the form of a heat map:
ICA RTT
WAN Latency
DC Latency
Bandwidth
Total Bytes
Per instance view
Per instance view provides detailed end user experience reporting for a particular selected Citrix ADC instance.
To navigate to the instance view:
Log on to your Citrix ADM using a supported web browser.
Navigate to Analytics > HDX Insight > Instances.
Select a particular instance from the Instance Summary Report.
