Version 2.0

What's New?

The enhancements and changes that are available in Build 54.16.

Authentication, authorization, and auditing

  • Support for encrypting OTP data and migrating existing OTP data into an encrypted form
    You can now store the OTP secret data in an encrypted format instead of plain text for enhanced security reasons. OTP data is stored in an encrypted format automatically if the required configuration is set. However, for existing OTP data in plain text, you can use the OTP encryption tool to migrate from plain text to encrypted format. Also, the OTP encryption tool can be used to update the existing certificates to new certificates.
    The OTP encryption tool is located in the “\var\netscaler\otptool” directory. You must download the tool from this location and run the tool with the required AD credentials and prerequisites.

Fixed Issues in Previous Citrix ADC 12.1 Releases

The issues that were addressed in Citrix ADC 12.1 releases prior to Build 54.16. The build number provided below the issue description indicates the build in which this issue was addressed.

AAA-General

  • Feature: Authentication, authorization, and auditing
    Support for push notification OTP
    Citrix Gateway now supports push notification OTP. You can configure Citrix Gateway such that login notifications are sent to your registered devices using push notification services. When you receive the notification OTP, you have to simply tap Allow on the notification to log in to Citrix Gateway. Once Citrix Gateway receives the OTP, it verifies the OTP, identifies source of the request, and sends response to that browser connection.
