The deployment is relatively simple. It begins with the deployment of lightweight remote PC service on a XenDesktop server in the data center. The remote PC service automates the VDA assignment to a user. IT deploys so the VDA on the user's desktop, and remote PC service does the rest. The following steps describe the process in more detail:
- VDA package with installation and deployment settings with ESD
- Configuring remote PC service configuration to place office in a catalog and allocation
- You planned the user login locally on the desktop and the remote PC service automatically assigns users to their PCs.
- the next time the user accesses receiver (desktop, mobile, HTML5), the office is available from their desktop applications, unified list! No need for VPN, additional passwords or storing IP addresses.
PC Remote Access fully supports a BYOD policy. In a BYOD environment where the user owns the PC that is being virtualized, users do not need to migrate their PC image to the data center to connect to their corporate desktop, even on the LAN. They simply bring their BYO device, install the receiver and they are ready for remote access to their office on HDX anywhere, anytime.
In the next installment of this blog series we look at how Remote PC access within the Citrix broader set desktop virtualization solution.
