To utilize a Citrix deployment that includes Citrix NetScaler with VMware Identity Manager, the administrator needs to deploy the Integration Broker.

Integration Broker is a component of VMware Identity Manager that allows the integration of third-party products like Citrix NetScaler. It acts as a proxy between VMware Identity Manager and the third-party product to provide single sign-on (SSO) capabilities and access to the Citrix environment.

The Integration Broker is deployed as a virtual appliance within the customer environment. The administrator needs to configure the Integration Broker to establish a trust relationship with the Citrix environment, configure the necessary settings, and define the entitlements for users.

Once the Integration Broker is configured, users can access Citrix applications through the VMware Identity Manager catalog. The administrator can also manage and monitor the Citrix environment from within the VMware Identity Manager console.

Therefore, option B - Integration Broker is the correct answer to the question. Option A - A custom ICA file, Option C - Citrix Receiver, and Option D - Citrix web interface, are not required to utilize a Citrix deployment that includes Citrix NetScaler with VMware Identity Manager.
