With agent-to-client redirection, Horizon Agent sends the URL to Horizon Client, which opens the default application for the protocol in the URL.
To enable agent-to-client redirection, perform the following configuration tasks.
- Install the extensions for the browsers that you intend to use on the Windows agent machine.
Note: For Internet Explorer, VMware Horizon View URL Filtering Plugin is installed by default with Horizon Agent. See Installing xyi.
- Enable the URL Content Redirection feature in Horizon Agent. See Installing Horizon Agent with the URL Content Redirection Feature Enabled.
- Apply the URL Content Redirection group policy settings to your remote desktops and published applications. See Add the URL Content Redirection ADMX Template to a GPO.
- Configure group policy settings to indicate, for each protocol, how Horizon Agent should redirect the URL. See URL Content Redirection Group Policy Settings.
