Voorkennis

Before taking this course, Citrix recommends that learners have experience using Windows Server 2008, including an understanding of Active Directory, policies and profiles and knowledge regarding administering users, home directories, user profiles and security. Learners should also have previous experience administering Citrix XenApp (Presentation Server 4.0), or completed the following course:
• CTX-1256AI Citrix Presentation Server 4.0

The key difference between CXA-201-1I and CXA-202-1I is the completeness of the course. If a student has no experience using any version of XenApp, CXA-201-1I is the appropriate choice. If a student has experience using Citrix Presentation Server 4.0, CXA-202-1I is the appropriate choice. If a student has experience using Citrix Presentation Server 4.5, CXA-202-1I is not neccessary to follow because of the overlapping topics.

Invulling
