You can configure settings on the Unified Access Gateway to control which remote experience features are activated or deactivated and also limit the number of people who can access and control the feature allow list. See https://docs.vmware.com/en/Unified-Access-Gateway/index.html for more information. This functionality supersedes any agent-side settings on the virtual channel allow list, which is documented in https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/84156.
