When the endpoint receives a client request, the Citrix ADC appliance evaluates the request against the rule that is configured for the topmost application unit. If the request satisfies this rule, the request is processed by the policies that are configured for the application unit, and then forwarded to a service. The choice of service depends on which services are configured for the application, and on settings such as the load balancing algorithm and persistence method configured for the application unit.

If the request does not satisfy the rule, the request is evaluated against the rule for the next topmost application unit. In this order, the request is evaluated against each application unit rule until the request satisfies a rule. If the request does not satisfy any of the configured rules, it is processed by the default application unit, which is always the last application unit.

You can configure multiple public endpoints for an AppExpert application. In such a configuration, by default, each application unit processes requests received by all the public endpoints and load balances all the services that are configured for the application. However, you can specify that an application unit processes traffic from only a subset of the public endpoints and load balances only a subset of the services that are configured for the AppExpert application.

The following flow diagram illustrates the AppExpert Application flow sequence for using a built-in application template.

If you prefer to create a customized application without using a template, do the following:

Create a custom application.
Configure application and deployment settings.
Export the configuration to new template files (optional).
Import the template files to other Citrix ADC appliances that require a similar AppExpert application configuration
