ICA Protocol with Streamed App's - XenApp

412 Views Asked by At

I'm studying XenApp and I know that the ICA protocol is used when hosting an application to the XenApp server.

But does the ICA protocol is also used when streaming an application from xenapp to the client ?

Thanks

Citrix app streaming is an application virtualization technology similar to Microsoft's App-V. A streamed (aka virtualized) application is packaged in a so-called profile which is transferred to the client for local execution. The transfer can happen over the following protocols:

  • SMB (aka CIFS)
  • HTTP
  • HTTPS
