n
Warn before connecting to untrusted servers. If a certificate check fails because the server uses a self-
signed certificate, you can click Continue to ignore the warning. For self-signed certificates, the
certificate name is not required to match the View Connection Server name you entered in
Horizon Client.
n
Do not verify server identity certificates. This setting means that View does not perform any certificate
checking.
If the certificate checking mode is set to Warn, you can still connect to a View Connection Server instance
that uses a self-signed certificate.
If an administrator later installs a security certificate from a trusted certificate authority, so that all certificate
checks pass when you connect, this trusted connection is remembered for that specific server. In the future,
if that server ever presents a self-signed certificate again, the connection fails. After a particular server
presents a fully verifiable certificate, it must always do so.
Manage Saved Servers
When you connect to a View server, Horizon Client saves the server to the Recent Connections screen
(Horizon Client 3.0) or Servers screen (Horizon Client 3.1 and later). You can edit and remove saved servers.
Horizon Client saves the server, even if you mistype the name or type the wrong IP address. You can delete
or change this information.
IMPORTANT In Horizon Client 3.0, you tap the arrow (>) next to a server name to connect to the server. In
Horizon Client 3.1 and later, you tap a server name to connect to the server.
