Which type of certificate should a Citrix Administrator request so that a client endpoint can communicate with StoreFront over an encrypted connection?
Correct Answer: A
A server certificate is required for StoreFront to use HTTPS connections. A server certificate identifies the server and establishes trust between the server and the client. A client certificate is used to authenticate the client to the server, which is not necessary for StoreFront. An intermediate certificate is issued by a trusted root authority to another certificate authority, and is not used for server identification. A root certificate is the top-most certificate of the tree, and is used to validate the trustworthiness of the certificate authorities below it, but it is not used for server identification.
