User`s guide

If your company has an internal wireless network to provide routable access to remote desktops that
your device can use, you do not have to set up a View security server or VPN connection.
n
Verify that you have the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the server that provides access to the
remote desktop. You also need the port number if the port is not 443.
n
If you plan to use embedded RSA SecurID software, verify that you have the correct CT-KIP URL and
activation code. See “Using Embedded RSA SecurID Software Tokens,” on page 11.
n
Configure the certificate checking mode for the SSL certificate presented by View Connection Server.
See “Certificate Checking Modes for Horizon View Client,” on page 23.
Procedure
1 Tap the VMware View app icon on the Home screen.
2 Tap the Add Server button, type the name of View Connection Server or a security server, and tap
Connect.
Connections between Horizon View Client and View Connection Server always use SSL. The default
port for SSL connections is 443. If View Connection Server is not configured to use the default port, use
the format shown in this example: view.company.com:1443.
You might see a message that you must confirm before the login dialog box appears.
3 If a smart card is required or optional, select the smart card certificate to use and enter your PIN.
If your smart card has only one certificate, that certificate is already selected. If there are many
certificates, you can scroll through them if necessary.
4 If you are prompted for RSA SecurID credentials or RADIUS authentication credentials, either enter
your credentials or, if you plan to use an embedded RSA SecurID token, install an embedded token.
Option Action
Existing token
If you use a hardware authentication token or software authentication
token on a smart phone, enter your user name and passcode. The passcode
might include both a PIN and the generated number on the token.
Install software token
Click External Token. In the Install Software Token dialog box, paste the
CT-KIP URL or CTFString URL that your administrator sent to you in
email. If the URL contains an activation code, you do not need to enter
anything in the Password or Activation Code text box.
5 If you are prompted a second time for RSA SecurID credentials or RADIUS authentication credentials,
enter the next generated number on the token.
Do not enter your PIN and do not enter the same generated number entered previously. If necessary,
wait until a new number is generated.
If this step is required, it is required only when you mistype the first passcode or when configuration
settings in the RSA server change.
6 If prompted, supply Active Directory credentials.
a Type the user name and password of a user who is entitled to use at least one desktop pool.
b Select a domain.
c Select the Save Password check box if your administrator has enabled this feature and if the server
certificate can be fully verified.
If this is the first time you are saving a password, you are prompted to activate the device
administrator, which is required in order to save a password on Android devices.
d Tap Done.
