Whomever told you that had it exactly backwards. AAC removes all management
from the AG (other than basic network configs and settings) and puts on the
AAC server behind the firewall. What was removed in the recent AAC version
is the need for multiple servers from the old NFUSE Elite product such as
state, agents, etc., i.e. you can run a single server for all functions.
So if you are using AAC with AG then you need the additional server on the
LAN which handles the extended features, while also taking over most of the
management of the basic AG features as well.

That looks like what I am seeing here. The problem is I was told that 4.2
did away with the AAC and it was all on the AG. So I thought I could just
get cheaper AG licenses and just provide endpoint scanning to external
clients. From what I am seeing the endpoint scanning on the AG is very
limited in that you have to setup anything you want to scan for. My
impression was that AAC has pre-canned rules that you can check for.
Can you run AAC without AG? I don't need a VPN solution but from what Citrix
is telling me I have to go with the AG if I want endpoint scanning.
Thanks for your input!

My understanding is that CAG will stand alone, but may be a bit limited. AAC
is installed on a separate server and in addition to having a lot more
functionality actually "sucks" a lot of the CAG features from the CAG and
bolts a lot more bits on.
Ask me again next week when we get to start flying our AAC.
I hope that makes sense.
Regards,
Alan.

Can someone explain this for me. I have a demo AG (Access Gateway) and
upgraded it to version 4.2 expecting to see all the AAC (Advanced Access
Controls) available. Instead I see a few AAC options and a setting to point
to a AAC server. This makes me thing that AAC is not truly integrated onto
AG 4.2 as I thought it was going to be. My understanding was that the AAG
option was going to be on the AG in the future.
I'm likely just not understanding something but if someone can explain this
I would be most thankful.
