Configuring Citrix

Citrix offers a complete virtualization solution, where all applications and resources are deployed on a centralized server, and published to remote devices. The Citrix Workspace app client installed on Dell Hybrid Client allows you to interact with the application GUI, while all the application processes are performed on the server.

This section provides information about how to configure a Citrix connection and other Citrix features using Wyse Management Suite.

Dell Hybrid Client supports the following Citrix features that you can configure using Wyse Management Suite:

Table 1. Supported Citrix featuresThe following table lists the Citrix features supported on Dell Hybrid Client:
Feature Description
File Type Association Establishes the relationship between a file type and a supporting application on the server or the local machine.
Single Sign-On Enables you to log in to the Citrix store without asking for username, password, and domain locally. The username, password, and domain are deployed from Wyse Management Suite and Citrix uses these credentials to log in to the store or published application.
Smart card Login Enables you to use a smart card to authenticate the user, and launch the Citrix session.
USB Redirection Enables the connected USB devices to be redirected from the client device to a Citrix virtual desktop. You can use a wide variety of USB devices in your Citrix session as though the USB devices were physically connected into the session. You can specify the list of USB devices to be allowed based on the Vendor ID, Product ID, Device Class, and Subclass ID.
Autolaunch Enables you to configure the Citrix connection to launch automatically when the user logs in to the client. This feature is supported from Dell Hybrid Client version 1.6 onwards.
Client Drive Mapping Enables you to associate a local drive with a remote session.
COM Port Mapping Enables you to map the serial device on the server to the serial device on the local device.
Transparent Key Passthrough Determines how the mapping of certain Windows key combinations is used when connecting to Citrix sessions. When Local is set, the key combinations are applied to the local desktop. When Remote is set, the key combinations are applied to seamless and non-seamless ICA sessions provided windows have the keyboard focus. When Full Screen Only is set, the key combinations are applied to the non-seamless ICA session in full screen mode.
HotKey mapping Enables you to create key combinations for shortcuts.
UDP audio support Use User Datagram Protocol (UDP) to support audio in a Citrix session.
Multi-Monitor Support Use multiple displays in a Citrix session.
H264 Support Use H.264 video codec to compress graphics during video playback in Citrix session.
Multimedia Redirection Enables the audio and video to be rendered on the endpoint device instead of running on the server side.
WebPage Redirection or Browser Content Redirection Enables the web browser content, including HTML5 videos, to be redirected to the client and not redirected on the VDA side. It prevents the rendering of included webpages on the VDA side.
Multistream and HTML5 redirection Enables you to use the multimedia redirection features of HDX MediaStream to include HTML5 audio and video.
Middle Button Paste Enables you to use the mouse's middle button for paste functionality.
Application Name Specifies the published application or desktop name. The application or desktop name is case-sensitive.
Allow access to microphone and webcam Enables you to access microphone and webcam inside a Citrix session.
Store Name Specifies the name of the store through which the connection for the StoreFront server is established.
Compression Enables you to compress data for better server performance.
Low Bandwidth Enables optimization for low-speed connections, such as reducing audio quality or decreasing protocol-specific cache size.
Resolution Specifies the connection display resolution. Seamless option is applicable only for Published Application and Storefront connections.
Encryption Specifies the connection security level. The highest level is 128-bit security and the lowest level is Basic.
Save MultiMonitor Preference Enables you to save the position of a desktop session and relaunch it in the same position when using multiple displays.
H.264 Enables H.264 encoding for media packets which are received from the server. This results in better performance for multimedia redirection and webcam redirection.
Purge Login Credentials Removes the saved login credentials for enhanced security.
NOTE:HDX adaptive transport must be disabled in the Citrix server configuration for Multiport to work.
NOTE:To enable the autoscroll functionality in the Citrix session, you must disable the Middle Button Paste option from Wyse Management Suite.
