Citrix as a Application Load Balancer
We have different option available in market for the ALB (Application load balancer) one of them is Citrix. As per my experience with F5 and AVI Citrix flow is just like same mostly in interviews I say this that if one person has the understanding of the concepts and flow, he/she will be able to operate/manage the solution of any vendor. Same is the case with ALB's flow is same just name are different for each vendor. As in F5 we have a management IP to manage it in Citrix we have NetScaler IP to manage it and configure it. We do have Self IP/Floating IP to communicate with servers if we are using SNAT in Citrix we have Subnet IP serve the same purpose. For services to expose via F5 we have Virtual IP's Luckly in Citrix it also known as Virtual IP. We have different modes of deployment one Arm and Two Arm any one can be used. HA deployment is quite simple in Citrix then off F5 as we just need to add the Node its IP and username, Password to be added in HA also the Subnet IP...
