    Article Summary

    The Citrix Gateway report shows the usage trends of the NetScaler Gateways in your organization by summarizing data about past activity and performance. You can view the data either individually for each gateway, or in summary form, for all selected gateways. By default, the selected time frame is the previous 24 hours.

    Use the report to answer questions such as:

    • How many user connections does a certain gateway usually handle during business hours?
    • When did the selected gateways experience the highest traffic rate?
    • How does the response rate compare to a request rate for a certain gateway?

    Report Functionality

    The report provides the following functionalities:

    • You can click a data point in the charts to view the minimum, average, and maximum number of user connections, request/response bits, and request/response rates during the selected time period.
    • You can click a data series name on the bottom of the chart to highlight or toggle the series on the charts.

    Select Which Gateways to View

    By default, the report shows all gateways in your environment. 

    To select which gateways to include in the report:

    1. In the first dropdown, select which NetScalers to include. 
    2. In the second dropdown, select which gateways to include. The list of available gateways depends on your selected NetScalers.

    Select a Graph Display Mode

    Set whether to plot gateways on the graphs individually, or as a summary of all selected gateways.

    • One Line - Summary. By default, plots all selected gateways as a single line. If the metric is a percentage, the value is the average of the percentages of all selected gateways. For all other metrics, the value is the sum of the average values of all selected gateways.
    • One Line - Per Appliance. Plots all selected gateways individually.
    Note

    The graph display mode does not affect the grid at the bottom of the report.

    The report displays the following charts:

    Note
    Words in parentheses relate to One-Line Per Appliance mode. They replace the words immediately preceding them, which relate to the default mode, One Line – Summary.
    • Concurrent Users. Total (average) number of user connections to all (each) of the selected gateway services together (individually).
    • Traffic In/Out. Total (average) rate of request/response bits, for all (each) of the selected gateways together (individually), in Mbps.
    • Request/Response Rate. Total (average) rate of requests/responses, for all (each) of the selected gateways together (individually).
