NetScaler Gateway plug-in establishes a secure connection from the client machine to the NetScaler Gateway appliance.

The plug-in is distributed as a desktop app for Microsoft Windows, macOS X, and Linux operating systems. After you authenticate to the secure URL of the NetScaler Gateway appliance with your Web browser, the plug-in is downloaded and installed automatically on your machine.

The plug-in is provisioned as a mobile app for Android and iOS devices.

Note:

To install the plug-in, admin/root privileges are required on the operating system.

The browsers that support the Citrix Gateway plug-in also support clientless VPN.

NetScaler Gateway plug-in as a desktop app is supported for the following operating systems and Web browsers.

Operating System	Supported Browsers
macOS X (10.9 and later)	Safari 7.1 or later; Google Chrome Release 30 or later; Mozilla Firefox Release 30 or later
Windows 10 (x86 and x64)	Internet Explorer 11; Google Chrome Release 30 or later; Mozilla Firefox Release 24 or later; Edge Chromium

Important: Due to a bug (1573408) in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, the VPN Gateway plug-in installation fails. The workaround for the same is listed as follows.

Type the following command using the command line interface:

sudo dpkg -i nsgclient*.deb

If the required dependency packages are missing, the command lists them and the plug-in installation fails. These dependency packages must be manually installed. Administrators can install a missing package by typing the following command using the command line interface.

apt-get install <dependency package>

NetScaler Gateway plug-in as a mobile app is supported for the following operating systems.
