Citrix ADC 13 Administrator — Question 1

Scenario: A user is attempting to access a web server which is load balanced by the NetScaler using HTTPS. The user received the following message:
SSL/TLS error: You have not chosen to trust "Certificate Authority" the issuer of the server’s security certificate.
What can a Citrix Administrator do to prevent users from viewing this message?

Answer options

• A. Ensure that the intermediate Certificate is linked to the Root Certificate.
• B. Ensure that the user has the Server Certificate installed.
• C. Ensure that the user has the Certificate’s Public key.
• D. Ensure that the intermediate Certificate is linked to the Server Certificate.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because linking the intermediate Certificate to the Root Certificate establishes a trusted chain, allowing users to trust the server's certificate. Option B is incorrect as it pertains to user-side configuration rather than server-side trust issues. Option C is not relevant since the Public key alone does not establish trust without the proper certificate chain. Option D does not resolve the trust issue since linking the intermediate Certificate to the Server Certificate does not ensure a valid trust path to the Root Certificate.
