Abstract
Citrix MetaFrame is not identical to Windows 2000 Terminal Services. It is a set of applications, utilities, and a proprietary Citrix thin-client protocol that is installed on top of Windows 2000 Server, which already has Terminal Services installed. When you design the Citrix MetaFrame environment, you should start by determining what your minimum requirements are for the server components. The number of processors, amount of RAM, and storage are necessary; these requirements are based on the number of concurrent users and the applications used by those users. The Citrix MetaFrame server needs to be placed nearest to the data sources that it will be providing to end users. MetaFrame supports multiple protocols for connections, as well as direct asynchronous connections. When you design your protocol, you should use the protocols that are in use currently, or that may be used in the near future. For each client that connects, the server needs to have a connection waiting that uses the protocol that the client has installed.
