What is Citrix?
Simply put, Citrix Met frame allows you to run applications you have at work from anywhere in the
world or on your local area network (LAN). You have real time access to run your applications as fast as if
you are in the office. It does not matter if you're using a dialup modem, DSL, ISDN, or T1 to access citrix
remotely.

How does Citrix work?


We begin with either an enhanced version of Windows NT 4.0 (Terminal Server Edition) or Windows
2000 with Terminal Services Installed.

Then, we add Citrix Met frame. This product allows multiple users to run multiple applications on the
Citrix Server at the same time. When you run applications on the Citrix Server the screen shots are sent
to your computer and, in return, your keyboard input and mouse movements are sent to the Citrix
Server.

How much bandwidth does it take?


The average connection uses 10K to 20K of bandwidth per connection. Hence, a 28K dial-up modem is
enough to access a Citrix Server.
What kind of operating system can I use to access
Citrix?
DOS, Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows CE (Thin Client), Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Unix, and
Macintosh.

How fast of a computer do I need to access Citrix?


Virtually any personal computer can access Citrix (e.g., 386 to Pentium 4). In fact, it does not matter how
fast your computer is, it will run with virtually the same speed on Citrix.
