Integrating Cisco CTI OS into a Citrix MetaFrame Presentation 
Server Environment
Introduction
CTI OS Release 8.0(1) supports the running of CTI OS Desktop applications within a Citrix MetaFrame 
Presentation Server (Release 4.0 or 4.5) or a Microsoft Terminal Services (MTS) environment. The 
Citrix MetaFrame Presentation Server permits hosting of several concurrent client applications 
simultaneously. This hosted environment reduces the deployment and software maintenance burden on 
CTI OS administrators and corporate information technology (IT) teams.
This document is intended to guide a Citrix or MTS administrator through the installation and 
configuration of Cisco CTI OS Release 8.0(1) in a Citrix MetaFrame Presentation Server (Release 4.0
