Getting Started with XenDesktop® 7.x

Summary

In this chapter, we learned how USB works in a virtual desktop; or how it doesn't work natively, but how you can configure it to work the way you want. Remember that XenDesktop uses a USB virtual channel between the remote end user and the virtual desktop. Think of it as a long USB cable connected to the remote end user through the network to the XenDesktop server. USB redirection works for many devices including printers and storage devices. In this chapter, you learned how to enable and disable access to USB devices. In the next chapter, we will discuss storage.
