Client IP Address Filter

[Carl Dittloff]

I am trying to apply a policy to users from a particular subnet. The policy does not seem to apply. When I remove the client ip filter it does work however.

I cannot find exactly what syntax the policy requires. I have tried a few different manuals and they do not seem to explain it to the level that I need.

Should the syntax be for a client on network 192.168.173.0 be:
1: 192.168.173.0
2: 192.168.173.0/24
3: 192.168.173.0 255.255.255.0

Thanks in advance.

Hi

Try 192.168.173.*

I have used this for a /24 network and it seems to work.

I have also tried the format: 192.168.173.1-192.168.173.254

This does not seem to work either.

I have now tried the exact IP Address of my testing workstation. I have remove all other filters. The policy DOES work when no filters are applied.

I entered my IP as 172.16.1.200 in the Client IP Filter. Is it possible that there might be a bug in XenApp 6?

I am going to try every possible way of entering the IP. Although this is painful as the XenApp Policy Module lags quite a lot and is very unresponsive.

Confirmed that
172.16.0.0/24 and 172.16.0.* BOTH worked.

Also confirmed that 172.16.1.200 works also for a single address.

The confusion was due to the Delivery Services Console Policy module hanging and not updating changes to the IMA Database. It was also a case of printer drivers not replicating giving mixed results.

Hi all, I'm also trying out this feature to map printers based on client IP-address.

Unfortunately I'm not seeing the desired results despite having tried both 192.168.1.0/24 and 192.168.1.* syntax.

I'm checking in the event viewer for errors, but not finding any.

Did you guys need to restart the IMA service to get this to work?

I know the needed printer drivers are indeed on the Citrix server (I only got 1 Citrix server using XenApp 6.5 at the moment)
