Default Parameters for CtxGwHttpTest

This test monitors HTTP connections handled by the target Citrix Cloud Gateway Connector, and reveals whether all HTTP requests have been responded to, and how much data have been received as requests and sent as responses by the target connector.

This page depicts the default parameters that need to be configured for the CtxGwHttpTest.

  • The TEST PERIOD list box helps the user to decide how often this test needs to be executed.

  • To monitor a Citrix Cloud Gateway Connector, the eG agent should be configured with the credentials of a user with read-only privileges to the target connector. Specify the credentials of such a user in the USERNAME and PASSWORD text boxes.

  • Confirm the password by retyping it in CONFIRM PASSWORD text box.

  • By default, the SSL flag is set to No indicating that the eG agent will communicate with the connector via HTTP by default. If the target connector is SSL-enabled, then set this flag to Yes to enable the eG agent to communicate with target connector via HTTPS.

  • Once the necessary values have been provided, clicking on the UPDATE button will register the changes made.

When changing default configurations of tests, the values with “$” indicate variables that will be replaced by the eG system according to the specific server being managed - for instance, $hostName is the host/nickname of the target host, $port is the port number of the server being monitored. E.g., for a server xyz:80, $hostName will be changed automatically by the eG manager to “xyz*” and $port will be changed to “80” when configuring a test.
