Lab 4: Webtop Access Policy Build¶
In this lab, we will add a Webtop resource to the Access Policy created in the previous lab. A full webtop provides an access policy ending for an access policy branch to which you can optionally assign portal access resources, app tunnels, remote desktops, and webtop links, in addition to network access tunnels. Then, the full webtop provides your clients with a web page on which they can choose resources, including a network access connection to start.

Task 4: Testing¶
Open a New Incognito web browser to the virtual server created in the previous lab by navigating to https://app.acme.com. You will be presented with a Logon page similar to the one from the last lab.
Enter the following credentials:

This will open the APM Webtop landing page that shows the resources you are allowed to access. In this lab, we’ve only configured one resource:
F5 Rocks, but you can add as many as you want and they will appear on this Webtop page.
