A description of the process of logging in to the VMWare Web Console over Citrix

First, open https://vmware.ipera.com.au in a browser window (e.g. Internet Explorer). You should be presented with the screen below, prompting you for a username and password.

Enter your username and password as supplied by Ipera. You may be required to download the Citrix Presentation Server Client for your platform (e.g. Windows 32-bit or Linux). There are links to various clients on the login page, or you can navigate to Citrix Downloads at www.citrix.com/downloads if your platform is not listed.
You should now be presented with a small Internet Explorer style icon in place of the log-in box.
Ensure that you have pop-ups enabled in your browser before proceeding to the next step.
Click on the VMware Web Console Icon shown below.
You may receive a prompt regarding accepting and/or trusting a particular Site Certificate. Accept the certificate to proceed to the Vmware Web Console Log-in Window.

You should be presented with the window below. Enter your username and password, as supplied by Ipera.

Once you have entered your details, you should be presented with the VMware Infrastructure Web Access dashboard, shown below.

You can now double click on a system, in order to bring up the system monitoring console, shown below. From there you can power cycle the system, monitor resource usage and access the server console.
