Lync VDI Plugin Deployment

The Lync VDI plugin is a standalone application that is available in 32-bit and 64-bit versions, and can be freely downloaded from the Microsoft download site. The plugin must then be installed on the endpoint device that will be used to access the VDI desktop, which is typically a repurposed desktop or a thin client device. To use the plugin, there are systems prerequisites that must first be met, as detailed in the following section.

Tip

The full Lync client does not need to be installed on the endpoint device used to access the VDI desktop; only the Lync plugin software is required.
