CSG Performance Test

This test monitors connections to the Citrix Secure Gateway.

Target of the test : Any Citrix Secure Gateway server

Agent deploying the test : An internal agent

Outputs of the test : One set of results is reported for every Citrix secure gateway server being monitored.

Configurable parameters for the test
Parameter	Description
Test Period	How often should the test be executed
Host	The IP address of the host for which the test is being configured.
Port	Refers to the port used by the Citrix secure gateway server

Measurements made by the test
Measurement	Description	Measurement Unit	Interpretation
Successful connections to the CSG	The number of successful connections handled by the Citrix Secure Gateway during the last measurement period.	Number
Successful CGP connections	The number of successful CSG protocol connections handled by the Citrix Secure Gateway during the last measurement period.	Number
Successful SOCKS connections:	The number of successful SOCKS protocol connections handled by the Citrix Secure Gateway during the last measurement period.	Number
Successful HTTP connections	The number of successful HTTP/HTTPS protocol connections handled by the Citrix Secure Gateway during the last measurement period.	Number
Current active connections to the CSG	The number of connections currently being handled by the CSG.	Number	If the number of active connections is unusually high or low, it may indicate a situation that warrants further investigation to see if the Citrix infrastructure is working well.
Active CGP connections	The number of CGP connections currently being handled by the CSG.	Number
Active Socks connections to the CSG	The number of SOCKS connections currently being handled by the CSG.	Number
Active HTTP connections to the CSG	The number of HTTP/HTTPS connections currently being handled by the CSG.	Number
Failed connections to the CSG	The total number of failed client connection requests during the last measurement period.	Number	This value is the sum of the Failed Connections (Timed Out), Failed Connections (SSL Error), and Failed Connections (General Client Error) counters.
Percent failed connections	The percentage of total connections handled that failed.	Percent
Client timeouts	The total number of client connection requests that were accepted but timed out before completing the protocol handshake during the last measurement period.	Number
SSL handshake errors	The total number of client connection requests that were accepted but did not successfully complete the SSL handshake during the last measurement period.	Number
Client errors	The total number of client connection requests that failed to connect to the Secure Gateway for any reason other than timing out or SSL handshake error during the last measurement period.	Number
Avg client connection time	The average amount of time (in Secs) for a client connection request to complete the connection process.	Secs
Failed backend connections	The total number of backend connections that failed in the last measurement period.	Number	Clients that successfully connect to the Secure Gateway may not successfully connect to backend servers, such as a Web server. These connections are not counted as part of the failed client connection count.
Pending connections	The total number of client connection requests accepted, but not yet completed by the Secure Gateway.	Number	Pending connections are still active and have not timed out or failed. An increase in pending connections indicates a potential bottleneck at the CSG.
