How to use intermediate certificates with Access Gateway VPX and an iPad
Issue
When using an SSL certificate that uses an intermediate certificate authority (e.g. Go Daddy), particular trust issues may be seen when using an iPad that are not seen when using a PC web browser.
The error typically seen is:
"Cannot Verify Server Identity
Safari can't verify the identity of cag.domain.com. Would you like to continue anyway?"
Resolution
The intermediate certificate authority certificate must be added to the access gateway VPX and also added to the server certificate chain.
From the Access Gateway admin logon point (
https://cag/lp/adminlogonpoint)
 - Select 
Certificates
 - Select 
Import | 
Trusted (.pem)
 - Browse to the file and click 
Open
 - Select the server certificate (e.g. citrix.domain.com)
 - Click the 
Add to Chain button
 - Select the intermediate certificate authority and click 
Add
