  1. Citrix MetaFrame Briefing

  2. Introducing . . . Thin-Client/Server Solution, built for Microsoft NT4 Terminal Server, that provides a High-Performance, Cost-Effective, Secure Way to Deploy, Manage and Access Business-Critical Applications Enterprise-Wide

  3. What is Thin-Client/Server Computing? Network Application Logic & Data Lives in the Network Application Information Accessed by a Thin Universal Client • Thin-Client/Server Computing is an architecture where the application executes 100% on the server, and the application’s user interface is accessed via thin-client hardware or software.

  4. The Citrix TCSC Family of Products • The integrated solution for thin-client/server computing • The thin-client/server solution for Windows NT4.0, Terminal Server Edition

  9. Heterogeneous Computing Environments • Citrix ICA Clients Support: • Any Client Device • Windows — Win16, Win32, WinCE, ActiveX , Plug-in • Non-Windows — DOS, Mac, UNIX, Java • Thin clients — Windows-based terminals, wireless devices, information appliances • Any Network Connection • Dial-up, LAN, WAN, wireless, Internet/intranet • Any Protocol • Direct Asynchronous, IPX, SPX, TCP/IP, NetBEUI

  10. Enterprise Management System Management User Management Application Management

  11. Enterprise Management Tools • System Management: • Load Balancing Services • Groups multiple MetaFrame servers into scaleable server farms • Automatically routes users to least-busy server • Optimizes application performance and resource utilization

  12. Enterprise Management Tools • System Management: • Administration Utility • Manage apps, users and servers from a single point • Administrator Toolbar • Simplifies access to commonly used management utilities by placing them right on the desktop • SecureICA Services • End-to-end RSA RC5 encryption for the ICA data stream • North American (128-bit) and international (40-bit) encryption available

  13. Enterprise Management Tools • Application Management: • Application Publishing • Single point application definition and maintenance • ReadyConnect Client • Configurable ICA client for rapid, mass deployment of applications enterprise wide

  14. Enterprise Management Tools Application Launching Application Embedding • Application Management: • Application Launching & Embedding • Integrates Windows apps into Web environment • ALE Wizard automatically generates HTML code and sample Web pages

  15. Enterprise Management Tools • User Management: • Automatic Client Update • ICA client software updated automatically from the server • Session Shadowing • Control another user’s session to see display on screen & to control mouse and keyboard • Makes remote support, diagnosis and training easy from anywhere • Shadow Taskbar • Enables many-to-one, or one-to-manage shadowing

  16. Seamless DesktopIntegration Extended Application Access Local/Remote Transparency Bandwidth-Independent Performance

  17. Seamless Desktop Integration Local Application Seamless Windows • Remote apps look, feel and perform as though they are running locally Local Windows Desktop

Seamless Desktop Integration • Richest user experience: • Audio support • Supports local audio • Drive mapping • Supports local drive access • Printer mapping • Supports local printing • Com port mapping • Supports specialized devices like POS scanners • Local/Remote clipboard support • Even across multiple remote sessions and servers

  19. Seamless Desktop Integration • SpeedScreen • Intelligent agent reduces transmissionof frequently repainted screens • Up to 4X performance gain over low-bandwidth connections

  20. WinFrame/MetaFrameInteroperability Giving Customers More Choices

  21. WinFrame/MetaFrame Interoperability • Maximizes coexistence of WinFrame & MetaFrame servers on the same network • WinFrame & MetaFrame can be in same load-balanced server farm • Same ICA client can access either server • Applications can be published across either WinFrame or MetaFrame server farms

  22. MetaFrame/WinFrame Interoperability All WinFrame & MetaFrame Servers Listed Here Server Farm Management Functions Here ManagementConsole

  23. Packaging, Pricing & Availability Giving Customers More Choices
