You can use the vdmadmin command with the -A option to override the IP address reported by Horizon Agent.
Syntax
vdmadmin -A [-b authentication_arguments] -override -i ip_or_dns -d desktop -m machine
vdmadmin -A [-b authentication_arguments] -override -list -d desktop -m machine
vdmadmin -A [-b authentication_arguments] -override -r -d desktop [-m machine]
Usage Notes
Horizon Agent reports the discovered IP address of the machine on which it is running to the Connection Server instance. In secure configurations where the Connection Server instance cannot trust the value that Horizon Agent reports, you can override the value provided by Horizon Agent and specify the IP address that the managed machine should be using. If the address of a machine that Horizon Agent reports does not match the defined address, you cannot use Horizon Client to access the machine.
Options
The following table shows the options that you can specify to override IP addresses.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| -d desktop | Specifies the desktop pool. |
| -i ip_or_dns | Specifies the IP address or resolvable domain name in DNS. |
| -m machine | Specifies the name of the machine in a desktop pool. |
| -override | Specifies an operation for overriding IP addresses. |
| -r | Removes an overridden IP address. |
