New and enhanced features
Service endpoints
This feature enables the configuration of Service endpoints on Flex VDA subnets through the Admin UI and API. By doing so, we enable secure, direct traffic routing over the Azure backbone, allowing customers to whitelist Flex subnets in their Storage Firewalls.
For more information, see Service endpoints.
Azure Network contributor permission for VNet peering
The enhancement allows a customer to enter service principal details for an Azure Network contributor that has fewer permissions than a subscription owner for VNet peering. This aligns with customers’ security and compliance requirements.
For more details, see Virtual network peering.

Manage IPv4 address ranges for an Azure Virtual WAN spoke connection
After creating an Azure Virtual WAN spoke connection, you can expand the allocated network space by adding more IPv4 address ranges to the Citrix-managed spoke virtual network. This capability is useful when your existing address range is running low on available IP addresses or when you need to support additional Flex workloads.
For more information, see Manage IPv4 address ranges for an Azure Virtual WAN spoke connection.
Microsoft Entra ID and Intune support
Citrix DaaS Flex integrates with Microsoft Entra ID and Intune to strengthen security, meet compliance requirements, and deliver a seamless end-user experience. Combining this functionality with Microsoft Entra Single Sign-on further simplifies user access.
For more information, see Configuring Microsoft Entra ID.
