What are the different types of Gateway licenses?

The Platform license allows an unlimited number of connections to Citrix Virtual Apps, Citrix Virtual Desktops, or StoreFront by using ICA Proxy. The Universal License is an add-on license on top of Citrix ADC platform licenses. This allows VPN connections to the network from the Citrix Secure Access agent, a SmartAccess log on point, or Secure Hub, Secure Web, or Secure Mail. For more details, see Citrix Gateway License Types.

How many concurrent user sessions are supported?

The supported sessions depend on the gateway license type. For details, see Citrix Gateway License Types.

Another factor to consider is the capacity of the underlying hardware itself. Refer to Citrix ADC MPX/SDX data sheet or Citrix ADC VPX data sheet for performance considerations.

How to check the current concurrent user sessions licensed?

In the configuration utility on the Configuration tab, expand System and then click Licenses. In the Licenses pane, you see a green check mark next to Citrix Gateway. The Maximum Citrix Gateway Users Allowed field displays the number of concurrent user sessions licensed on the appliance.

How to check whether the licensed throughput limit is reached?

You can extract the real-time throughput using newnslog. For example, if license throughput is 500 Mbps, then you can extract the real-time throughput over 500 by using the following command.

nsconmsg -K newnslog -g mbits -d past -s disptime=1 -s ratecount=500 | more
