Citrix XenMobile iOS 11

Event Xenmobile

iOS 11 will be here soon. In order to ensure a smooth adoption of iOS 11 Citrix wanted to make sure customers are aware of the following information which may require you to take action.

Important information and reminders for iOS 11 support:
  1. The XenMobile Server DOES NOT require an update to support iOS 11.
  2. All iOS users need to update their devices to XenMobile client 10.7 before upgrading to iOS 11. More detailed instructions and recommendations for iOS 11 can be found HERE.
  3. If you are using certificate authentication you need to enable Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.2 on your NetScaler (if not already enabled). Devices running iOS 11 can fail to enroll if this action is not taken. More information can be found HERE.
  4. If you are managing iOS devices using XenMobile and match the two conditions below you must make suggested changes to your NetScaler prior to the release of iOS 11.
  1. XenMobile is deployed in a cluster set-up (with more than one node).
  2. XenMobile is deployed in MDM-only or Enterprise (MDM+MAM) mode.

If customer match these two conditions, NetScaler load balancing configuration need to be modified to use Source IP persistence. If you are a XenMobile Service customer, the Citrix Cloud Ops team will make this change for you. Complete documentation for this required modification can be found HERE.
