Licensing guide for Citrix Gateway 编辑

Install a new license

To install a license, you can either use the automatic method or the manual method. Automatic license allocation requires access to citrix.com public domains through the appliance.

To install licenses, use the license access code that Citrix sends you through email.

The following section contains methods to install a license:

• Automatic installation
• Manual installation

Before you start

• Ensure you have your license access code in the LA-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxx format. This code is listed in the Citrix email when you purchase a license.
• Ensure you use a proxy server, if you do not want to configure internet connectivity on the Citrix ADC appliance. Select the Connect through Proxy Server check box and specify the IP address and port of your proxy server.

Automatic installation

1. In a web browser, type the IP address of the Citrix ADC appliance. For example, http://192.168.100.1.

2. In the User Name and Password, type the administrator credentials.

3. On the Configuration tab, navigate to System > Licenses.

4. In the details pane, click Manage Licenses, click Add New License, and then select:

   • Use license access code: Citrix emails the license access code for the license that you purchased. Enter the license access code LA-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxx in the text box.

5. Click Get Licenses. The following dialog box appears.

   

6. Select the license file that you want to use to allocate your licenses.

7. In the Allocate column, enter the number of licenses to be allocated, and click Get.

8. Enter the number of licenses, as seen in the following screenshot.

   

9. Click restart for the license to take effect.

10. In the Reboot dialog box, click OK to proceed with the changes, or click Close to cancel the changes.

    

11. After you install the license on the appliance, you must set the maximum number of users that are allowed to connect to the appliance. You set the maximum user count in the global authentication policy.

12. In the configuration utility, on the Configuration tab, in the navigation pane, expand Citrix Gateway and then click Global Settings.

13. In the details pane, under Settings, click Change authentication AAA settings.

14. In Maximum Number of Users, type the total number of users and then click OK.

    The number in this field corresponds to the number of licenses contained within the license file. This number should be less than or equal to the total number of licenses installed on the appliance. For example, you install one license that contains 100 user licenses and a second license that contains 400 user licenses. The total number of licenses equals 500. The maximum number of users who can log on is equal to or less than 500. If 500 users are logged on, any user who attempts to log on are denied access until a user logs off or you terminate a session.
